Default Text to Buttons


I set up text hyperlinks in the navigation bar section of a predesigned
template. Can I change the text to buttons? How do I do it?

Thanks!

Greg

Default Text to Buttons

The really basic HTML for buttons based on pictures is

<a href="file_linking_to.htm"><img border="0"
src="button.gif"></a>

You just also insert the picture, right click and put the
link in Picture Properties.

You could also use Front Page Insert>Component>Hover Button

The FP Hover button is not a good choice since many users of Windows XP and IE 6, NS 6 do not have
the ability to via Java Applets, and in the case where the applet provide navigation, the users of
the site will not be able to navigation the site.

insert the images/buttons and link from them

do you mean buttons as in the form field "button" or do you mean rollover images,
normal images, hover buttons or interactive buttons (fp2003).?

so, provide text links as back-up navigation.

Yes. As in something that you click on. hoover, etc. I have FP2000, about
to have FP2003 in a day or so, I did the component route and the form route.
Maybe because I'm using a template it's only allowing me to use linked text.
This is day two - so who knows....

I don't know about you, but if I hit a site and the navigation doesn't work, I don't spent time
looking for other means of navigation, I just move on to another web site.

So instead of have to build a duplicate navigation structure, it would be better to just have a
single working navigation structure that will work for all users to begin with.

Is this a theme? If so, click in navigation bar, select style from dialog box.
