FP2002 and discussions boards

L

Lor

Hi there,

I am trying to create a discussion forum for my web...and
have used the FP2002 discussion wizard to set it all up.

I am finding, however, that the discussion pages are not
displaying as I would expect. For example on the post page
I see some tags at the top of the page
[_borders/_borders/disctest_head.htm] - to pull in the
header document
Then the area to enter the post is displayed, then more
tags calling the foot page and this is repeated 3 times. I
see similar problems with the toc page.

I do have the server extensions installed (win2k server
with iis 5 and FPSE2002) and can use other features that
require Server Extensions to be installed.

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Thanks

Lor

Somehow you have incorrect paths to your include pages
_borders/_borders/disctest_head.htm should probably be
_borders/disctest_head.htm
(the disctest_head.htm page in the _borders folder under the root web)

Thanks for getting back to me...

I have gone into the code and removed the extra folder
level it seemed to be adding (ie the extra _borders listed
in the header and footer pages) and I still see the tags
listed rather than the actual headers and footers. And I
also still see three sets of the forms to create a post.
Its just a shame that I can't attach a screen dump so that
you can see first hand..

I have now tried to create this as part of the web I am
currently in, creating a new web...I've also tried most of
the framing options that are available to you...but still
see the same type of error...tags being shown rather than
the header and footer, and more posting boxes than I can
shake a stick at!

Any more ideas?

Thanks

Lor
