I am using frontpage2000. I inserted a component (hover button) with a hyperlink on my page. I made sure to upload the fphover.class into my files on the web (geocities). Everything appears fine in preview however when I load the page on the web and preview it I see only gray boxes where the hover buttons should be and an error on the bottom page that says 'load: class fphover not found'. Any suggestions/help is GREATLY appreciated.
 
Thank you Kathleen for your speedy reply and help. I checked out both articles and tried all the solutions listed to no avail. The hover buttons on the web are still showing up as gray boxes. Again the page looks fine on previews. I'm not sure if this makes a difference or not but I just downloaded the server ext pack to my frontpage 2000(it suggested that when I checked for updates). Also, I don't publish my pages through frontpage. I upload the files into the file manager on geocities. Any other suggestions? Thanks again......

if you've used another method of uploading your java class and .jar files
are probably not where they should be. this is probably the reason for your
problem.

Do you and your users have a valid JAVA engine installed (many don't)
IMHO don't use Hoovers

I should have given the link to the page so everyone could see what I was talking about and view source. It's http://www.geocities.com/losthorizons01 . I only know the very basics so no laughing! LOL. I have uploaded the fphover.class and fphoverx.class files into the file manager and tried changing the codebase info in the html as suggested in previous reply but neither options worked. I am using frontpage2000, windowsxp and I upload the html pages directly into the file manager instead of uploading through frontpage. If anyone has any ideas you can contact me at (e-mail address removed) please use the subject 'component'. Thanks very much to those who have replied...
 
Normally the .class files should be in the root of the web, in this case place them in the same
folder as the page.

Try the following:

Change:
<applet code="fphover.class" codebase="../" width="120" height="24">
to:
<applet code="fphover.class" width="120" height="24">

Note: Many users of Windows XP, IE6 and NS6+ will not be able to see the hover buttons or any Java
Applets since the Java Virtual Machine is not available, unless the user goes directly to the Sun
web site and installs it.
