Pages won't save

Hello all,

I've just upgraded from FrontPage2000 to 2003. I am not a happy camper.
When I edit pages I've created, I right-click on the page tab, click Save,
then click Close. When I go to bring the page back up again, it's blank!!

Talk about frustrating....I've spent literally hours on a page, only to have
it disappear! I've created some of these pages by doing a Save As from
another page that has java scripts on it. Could this be the problem? If
so, how is this accomplished without losing all the content?

Many thanks,
--Anita
 
I just tried to reproduce the problem and can't.
However, try this: Close FrontPage.
Do a file search for files named *.web and delete all found.
Then search for *.tmp and delete all found.
Then delete the Temporary Internet and History files in Internet Explorer.
The open FrontPage, Open the web, and recalculate hyperlinks.
Then see what happens.
Also you might try the save Icon on the toolbar instead of right clicking
the page tab.

Thanks, Steve, but this doesn't work either. I find that the body code is
missing, even though everything shows up in Preview mode. Where did the
code go??? If I try to make any changes, such as getting rid of the
*repeated* code (<BODY OnLoad="InitMenu()" Onclick="HideMenu(menuBar)"
ID="Bdy" bgColor="#FFCC00" language="Javascript1.2">) I lose everything.
Apparently the code repeats itself, and then there is nothing else except a
</html> tag.

I've reinstalled the FrontPage extensions on the server; reinstalled
FrontPage2003; recalculated hyperlinks, etc., etc., and nothing works.
Could it be faulty javascript for the cascade menu? (I'm not a programmer; I
got the script as freeware.) The cascade menu *works* but FrontPage isn't!

Many thanks,

I would suspect the script for the cascade menu.
Have you tried the free add in named Spawn from Jimco Addins,

That BODY tag contains elements that are not supported by BODY tags
Only part supported is
<BODY OnLoad="InitMenu();" ID="Bdy" bgColor="#FFCC00">

Anita, I'm having the EXACT same problem you were having in March where I am saving and everything is going blank afterwords. The only thing left on the page (even though it looks perfectly ok in preview) is the bottom shared border. Did you ever get an answer to your question?? Jill Erickson
