active hyperlink

Guest

I'm working in frontpage 2000, and wanted to create links that went to a bookmark in a word document. Since Frontpage cannot recognize bookmarks when creating hyperlinks, I found it easier to create the bookmarks in word and paste them into frontpage. The only problem is that the links I created in frontpage are a different color than the ones pasted from word. I'm using a theme, and the hyperlinks pasted from word are using the color of an "active hyperlink", whereas the links created in frontpage are using the color of "regular hyperlink". My question is what the difference between the two types of hyperlinks, and whether there is a property I can change somewhere that would make all of the hyperlinks the same. Thanks for your help.

You need to look at the code that you pasted from Word into FP, which most
likely has style tag attached to it.

FrontPage sure can recognize bookmarks
when creating hyperlinks!!

You need both pages open, the page containing the bookmark
and page you a creating the link pointing to the bookmark.

1. Highlight the text, ( use only 1 word ) Select Insert > Bookmark.
click Ok in the next popup. Save the page.
2. To link to the bookmark, insert hyperlink, in the popup, highlight
the page containing the bookmark, click the bookmark tab in the hyperlink
panel
and select the term or word representing the new bookmark.

Note that I said use only one word for your bookmark anchor as spaces
between
words in the anchor will cause the bookmark to fail and default to the top
of the page.
