How to navigate Virtual Directories?

[Ian]

Hi,

I'm using a combination of FP 2002 and FP 2003 to administer a small
internal website hosted using IIS 5.0.

I have several virtual directories defined containing files that I'd
like to link to from some pages.

I'd like to use the Edit Hyperlink dialog to do this, however the dialog
doesn't seem to display or recognize the virtual directories.

Of course, entering the absolute or relative URL manually works fine.

Is there a trick to getting the Edit Hyperlink dialog to allow me to
browse virtual directories? Something I can turn on? A Server
Extension to administer, maybe?

Thanks,
Ian

Ian,
FrontPage cannot view virtual directories. FP can only view the
files that are physically in a web. The only virtual directories that FP can
work with are ones that are converted to a web, but that doesn't help you
because you still wouldn't be able to navigate to them.

Hope this helps,
