Accessing Your Page
The folder containing your web page is located on the web server. You can access
your folder to create or edit pages either from school or home. To access your
folder, you will need your username and password given to you by the Webmaster. Then
follow these steps to access the folder that contains your home page:
1. Start Front Page (using the Start
Menu, programs, FrontPage 2000).
2. Open Web by using the File menu or
the Open Tool.
3. In the Open Web Dialogue Box, type
your Web Page URL in the folder name text box or choose your Web Page from the list of
recent
pages.

4. Type your name and password at
the prompt.
5. To open the page you wish to
edit, use File Open, the Folder Icon or the Folder List Button. To create a new
page, start with the blank new page.
 
6. Have Fun!
Creating a Link
To create a link in FrontPage, use the Insert Menu and Hyperlink Option or the Hyperlink
Tool.  If you know the URL you can type it in the URL
box in the hyperlink dialogue box. If you don't know the URL, search for it using
the browser. Select the tool highlighted below in the blue box to navigate in the browser.
Making a Table
Create a table using the Table Menu, Insert Option and Table Option. In the table
dialogue box, choose the number of rows and columns. The Toolbar also has a table
option  in which you can click and drag the mouse pointer
over the number of rows and columns the table will include. Tables are very useful
for organizing text and graphical information on the same line. It is also possible
to put tables within tables to help in page layout.
Inserting Word
Documents
In Word, use the File Menu and Save as Web Page Option to save the document. In
FrontPage, use the File Menu and Import Option, and then select File (for one document) or
Folder (containing one or more documents) and click on the ok button.
Saving and Naming
Files
The basics of saving a FrontPage file include giving the file a name and giving the
page a name. The first step is to give the file a name in the save dialogue
box. Note: The file name will become part of the URL, so it cannot include
spaces. The page title, the name that appears in the browser title bar, can be
changed by using the change button next to the page title text box.
One final thought about
saving files. As you start creating pages, you will want to get in the habit of
making folders. To create a folder in the folder view, use the File Menu, New Option
and Folder Option. To create a folder in the save dialogue box, use the New Folder
Tool  .
