I changed to a new PC a few days ago and have installed Frontpage 2002 onto the new machine and copied all of the web files into it. I updated my site yesterday but when I view it, the navigation bars are not showing. My web has been set up exactly the same way as it was on my old PC and includes shared borders where I put the navigation bars. The navigation bar is visible on each of my pages when I preview and all of the hyperlinks & navigation structure is correct. However, when I publish the web the navigation bars do not appear. All other hyperlinks are working. How can I correct this as I am baffled as to what has gone wrong. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. Happy New Year Yvonne My site is at http://fp.ymv13.plus.com

This process will assure that all the supporting files are pulled down with the site.

Once a page has opened up you can then go to FILE >Publish >and choose a spot on your C Drive as the new location to place your new working copy of your web. I would at least try to "Recalculate hyperlinks" on your current web copy first (which is in TOOLS) _____________________________ Cheers from the Outback Have a look at my Northern Territory backyard at http://www.ourterritory.com "Keep them laughing as you go.......but remember that the last laugh is on you" THe bright side of life, Monty Python, Life of Brian.

You probably ran into the problem because you copied the folders rather than publishing them. Best way to avoid the problem is to publish to your website from your old computer and then publish down from the server as garry instructed. If all else fails you can delete your navigation structure and redo it (if you don't have too many files it won't take too long) and your navigation bars should start working again. _____________________________ " Things are always darkest, just before it goes totally black." -Hannibal Smith (in reply to garry)

I re-calculated the hyperlinks & they were ok so I followed your instructions and published to my hard drive. All is now ok and I've re published to the web. I've also saved a copy from the hard drive to disk, just in case. Yvonne (in reply to puiwaihin)
