ms office FrontPage 2003 sp2
win xp pro sp2

FrontPage creates a script for collapsible outlines (outline.js). FrontPage
allows for two settings: initial state of table is either collapsed or
expanded.

The issue is: when navigating away from the expanded outline (suppose it
includes links) and later returning to it, the table is collapsed again. I
would like for the table to be initially collapsed, but if I expand it,
leave it, and come back to it, I would like for it to be in the same state
in which I left it (i.e. expanded).

Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks,

Clem.

You need to do two things.
Change the script in the outline.js file:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q230124/

then remove the mouse event from the html page, that causes the table to collapse when the
mouse leaves the table

Steve,

Thank you for your reply.

I want to preface my note with explaining that I am a bit of a novice at
this.

1, You said to change the script in the outline.js file, but when I looked
at the KB article, I was confused about whether the changes mentioned in the
KB article need only be made in the outline.js file, or whether the
instructions in the KB article also refer to the html code in the html page
that contains the collapsible outline (my attempts at following the
instructions in the KB article resulted in miserable failure).

2, You suggested that I remove the mouse event from the html page that
causes the collapse when the mouse leaves the table, but I am unclear how to
leave the page if not by a mouse event -- or am I misunderstanding you?

Your comments are much appreciated!

Clem.

Check this out - a quick and easy way to
get expandible lists. This method solves the problem with FP's collapsible
list code that is NOT FF/NN compatible, and will therefore work in all
browsers.

http://www.murraytestsite.com/collapsiblelist.htm

It uses some CSS, and the FP Change Property behavior.
