Discussion Wizard and Frustrating problems

I've used the discussion wizard to create a discussion group on a small
business server 2000 computer with Frontpage Server Extensions 2002. Two
problems: When viewing the contents in the left frame, the word contents
appears twice but only once in the HTML/source file. The same is true when
viewing a post. All posts repeat themselves in the right frame. Viewing the
000000.htm post file produces the same result, but opening it with Frontpage
there is only one post. It is as if it is reading the aftr.hm and ahdr.htm
files multiple times. Any ideas?

If you could provide a link it'd be easier to diagnose. If I remember
correctly there is an option to not use frames also.

Chris,

Thank you. Here is the link:

http://www.hosinc.com/questionnaire/...ussion_frm.htm


Here is the link to my test post:

http://www.hosinc.com/questionnaire/...n/00000011.htm

You can see that the header and footer repeats twice which produces three
copies of my post. I've tried using the non-frames wizard and it produced the
same results.

Never use absolute URLs in include pages as in
u-include="http://www.hosinc.com/questionnaire/_hidiscussion/tocproto.htm"
make it u-include="_hidiscussion/tocproto.htm"

I see the following tag repeated (before and after your include page tag) in
http://www.hosinc.com/questionnaire/...ssion_tocf.htm

<h3><!--mstheme--><font face="times new roman, Times New Roman, Times" color="#6666CC"><tt>CONTENTS</tt><!--mstheme--></font></h3>

Delete the one you don't want

Since directory browsing is enabled on your site make the home page file name your default home page file name (in your case:
index.asp) instead of hidiscussion_frm.htm (otherwise user can view your files)

Stefan,

Origianally, I did not use the absolute URL but that did not seem to work. I
have put it back and you can see what happens. Somehow it is not seeing
_hidiscussion/tocproto.htm. Probably something simple but I can't figure it
out. Any ideas? Thanks!

Open you online subweb http://www.hosinc.com/questionnaire/ in FP and
- run a tools recalculate hyperlinks
- then open the page hidiscussion_tocf.htm and check the include page path
(right click it and select it by browsing to it)
- finally preview the page in browser

Stefan,

I've tried your suggestion and still have the same results. The include is
for _hidiscussion/tocproto.htm but in the preview window it shows
_hidiscussion/_hidiscussion/tocproto.htm. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

- Michael
