Inserting Word Art in web page?

I'm using FP2002 on Win XP Pro. When I insert Word Art
into a web page, a hidden folder called "index_files" is
created containing the word art .gif and an .xml file.
This folder and xml file now appears in the Table of
Contents, both locally and after publishing online. Of
course, if you click the link in the TOC, it takes you to
the .xml file which can't be displayed. Besides the fact
that the file appears in the TOC, the hidden folder isn't
showing up in the web directory (in FP), but DOES show if
I look at the web using Windows Explorer. Yes, I have
hidden files displayed in FP.

Is there any way to prevent FP Table of Contents from
displaying this file, given the fact that the folder and
files are NOT being displayed in FP folder listing to
access them?
 
Unfortunately the TOC include linked pages (even after setting the TOC Properties to no include all files)
Copy the html code from View Source in browser, and replace the TOC in to html w/ the code just copied

Nope, didn't work. When I save the file in FP, it removes
all the code I pasted into it and goes back to the same
way it was.

Naaaa, it's just easier to remove the word art and fix
things manually. I can't delete the folder and files it
created through FP cuz the folder doesn't show anywhere.
That was my original concern anyway. Why isn't that
folder showing up in FP folder list? It's there. I can
see it with windows explorer. I watched it upload when I
published the web. It doesn't show on the server side of
the folders durring publish either, but I can FTP into
the site and see it.

Oh well. I didn't like all the extra coding cr@p that
gets put into the file by the word art anyway. I can
take a screen capture of the thing and create an image
that works much better. Word art just isn't made for the
internet.

Thanks for trying.
