I am a new user to FrontPage 2003, and need to know if there is a way to mouseover an image in one frame and have another larger image appear in another frame while pointer is over the small image. Then when you move off the small image, the larger image disappears

I have seen this on some sites that I like, but absolutely cannot figure this out in FrontPage 2003. At this point, it seems maybe other softwares make this easier....and it is difficult in FrontPage. Am I correct

Can you help me? Thanks.
 
I will have to investigate if the mouse over behavior does this, but I am
inclined to say it will not be quite that easy.

The easiest method I can think of is to set up the rollover effect in a
single page (ie, place all of the image buttons that cause the rollover and
the image changed in the same page. You can then use the mouseover behavior
and create the rollovers (image change behavior - forget the "official"
name). You can copy the image changed to another page and the buttons to
your menu frame. The only change in the script is you will have to edit the
JavaScript to call the correct frame instead of just the image ID. It is a
simple find/replace operation, but still a pain.

At present, I do not know of any WYSIWYG tool that allows you to easily
change an image in another frame, as frames are pretty much frowned on these
days (diminishing return adding this functionality to a tool).
