|I am not sure if I made my self clear. On my computer at work and on my
| friends computer, both running XP and using FP 2002 when an image is
| "inserted" from "file from" and I grab a picture off of my hard drive and
| place it on a page and then I save that page a dialogue box pops up and
asks
| what I want to do with that image (save embedded image). I can save it to
a
| folder (images within the web), over write it if it already exists or
leave
| the path to my C drive. Usually I save it to the images folder that
exists
| within my wwwroot folder and FP makes a copy of that picture so the
original
| is still in "my pictures" and now it has a copy of it in the web folder
and
| it changes the path name in the HTML code of the page. But on my computer
at
| home that box does not pop up and give me a choice to automatically make a
| copy of it in the web folder. So in turn I have to drag it into the
images
| folder before I insert it into the page so the path name is correct from
the
| beginning. I didn't know if there was something "disabled" in the
settings
| of my FP.
