Horizontal rule in Front Page Theme - FP2003

D

Deb

I'm having a problem with Front Page 2003.

I've used Front page since version 98, and since I've
installed FP2003, I can no longer specify which graphic
to use for a horizontal rule in my themes. Even in
existing themes, when I try to customize them (customize
graphics), the horizontal rule isn't even given as an
option.

I have some sites that really need to have this fixed. If
someone knows how I can do this using a style sheet, I
guess I can use this as a work around.

Speaking of which, the checkbox "apply using a
stylesheet" is no longer an option in FP 2003 themes.
Why?

Thanks much in advance!
Deb

All FP2003 themes have been updated to use CSS by default
- the HR image is not supported by CSS
If you really want to use the HR image, find it in your _themes/themename folder and copy it to your images folder, then use Insert
Image (from file) instead of insert Horizontal Line

For older pages you can try Search and Replace ( <img src="images/yourimage.gif"> for <HR>)

Thanks much for the help!

Not really the answer I was hoping for, but at least now
I know why it does that and how to get around it. :)

Have a great day.

Is this what you were looking for:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
hr {
background-image: url(img/bg_rule.jpg);
height: 4px;
}
-->
</style>
