FP 2003 Horizonal Rule Graphics

[JTeel]

I upgraded to FP 2003 and the theme that I had from FP2002 will not display
the graphic horizontal line now. Even if I try to edit the theme there is no
place to change from just the plain line to a graphic. None of the themes
have graphic lines available. Did FP 2003 do away with that feature?

Thanks
Jeff

PS
Since all FP2003 themes are applied using CSS the prior version images are no longer used (not supported by CSS)
- if you really like images just insert the image instead of a HR tag

Seems like a step backwards for this version in my opinion. Unless there
were problems that I am not aware of with using graphics for HR's. This
change means that I will have to go through a 200+ page web site that was
done in FP 2002 and replace all of my HR's with graphic's now.

Thanks For The Information Everyone

Hi JT,

The problem with using graphics for HRs is that you can't do it with CSS,
and themes now use CSS exclusively.

Instead of changing this page by page, you may want to consider using Find
and Replace across your site and replacing the HTML tag <hr> with the HTML
tag and attribute <img src="whateveryourimageiscalled.gif"/>

The new functionality in Find and Replace should make this pretty easy for
you, I hope.

Thanks for the tip John. I'll give that a try. This has given me a chance to
look at my site and see if there is any "cleaning up" that could be done and
maybe give it a fresh look.

Thanks Again
Jeff
