Dynamic Test Drive Tutorial

FrontPage 2002 - Navigation

At this point, you should have:

• A trial or registered version of FrontPage 2002
• A sample template downloaded from our web site
• A new web created from the sample template
• Experience with editing text and include pages
• Experience with "previewing in browser"
• Experience with adding hyperlinks

7. Change Page Titles and Link Bar Text

FrontPage makes it very easy to change the page banner text and link bar text.

1. Click on the "Navigation" button in your Views Bar.
   
   
    
2. This is the Navigation View. It shows the navigation structure of your web site.
   
    
3. Right-click on the page you want to rename. Select Rename.
   
    
4. Type in the new name. For example, you can change "Template" to "About Us."
5. If you click on the file name tab to return to page view, you'll see that the corresponding links on the link bars have changed as well as the text on the Page Banner.
6. However, you'll also notice that the file name in the Folder List has not been changed. This may get confusing, since your file name does not accurately reflect your new Page Title.
7. You may also rename your file by right-clicking in the Folder List and choosing Rename.
   
   
    
8. Type in the new file name for your page. The file name should keep the .htm extension and should be one word with no special characters. Hyphens and underscores are permitted.
9. You can make the same kinds of changes by going to Folders View. Occasionally changing the Page Title in Folders View will not change what shows up on the bars and banners, so changing the Page Title in Navigation View is usually recommended.

8. Rearrange pages on link bars

You may easily rearrange the pages on your link bars by simple dragging and dropping.

1. Switch to Navigation View by clicking on the Navigation button in the Views Bar.
2. The navigation links or buttons that are based on your navigation structure are ordered according to the order of the pages in your navigation structure. So if you want Template to show up second on the link bar list, you can simply click and drag it to the new place.
   
   
3. Now, if you click back to one of your pages, you'll see that the link order on the link bar has changed!

9. Add a new page

1. With an existing page open, go to File > Save As.
   
   
   
   
   1. Change the file name. For example, change "gettingstarted.htm" to "services.htm."
   2. Click the "Change" or "Change Title" button to change the page title. For example, change "Getting Started" to "Our Services."
   3. Click Save.
2. Your new page has been created! If you preview this page in a browser, you will notice that the navigation buttons and page banner do not show up. This is because you need to move the page into your navigation structure to get the link bars working. Switch to Navigation View and drag the page into your navigation structure.
   
   
   
   
3. You may now double-click the page to open it up in Page View and start editing the contents.

10. Delete a page.

1. To delete pages from your web, right-click on the page you wish to delete in your Folder List or in Folders View and select "Delete.
2. To delete multiple pages, hold down the control key and left-click the files you want to delete, then right-click to select "Delete."
