Default Discussion Board Problems


I'm using FP2000 and have created a message board using
the Wizard. It seems to be working fine except for some
display problems. My main site uses frames and I want the
message board to be displayed within the main frame of
that site. It starts out there. I can click on a message
and it will stay in the main frame. I can even post a
message and it will stay in the main frame. But if I
click on "Contents" it immediately takes over the whole
screen completely obliterating my main site. There's no
way (other than hitting "back") to return to my main
site. What can I do to keep ALL the pages within the main
frame of my original site? (I'm pretty much computer-
illiterate -- so if anyone can help me, keep it simple!)

If your host supports subwebs highly recommend your DW be made as a subweb
- to prevent clobbering it when you publish your root (main) web
Then in the root / subweb create external links back to the subweb / root
