I have 3 fields coming in from an xml file, project_name, news, and url. I
have a data view in frontpage 2003 that displays project_name and news. What
I want to do is association the project_name and the url together, such that
the web page user clicks on the project_name they are taken to the detail
project information. However, whenever I drag the url element or right mouse
button and select insert as a link, I get the http as text and the link. How
can I get each unique url attached at a field level to the project_name so
when the xml file is refreshed nightly this data view is maintained with the
latest information?
 
You have to switch into Code view, then find and update the XSLT code that
builds the hyperlink HTML.
