Shared border not "flush" to top and left of screen

S

Sam Bryan

I'm using FP 2003.

I took over a website at a non-profit and there is no way to contact the
original webmaster.
I am in process of redoing the navigation. I have published the web to a
"sandbox" site www.necktopcomputer.com

The original had no shared borders.
I added a top shared border.
It works as I want it on the original pages -- that is, the top border is
flush at the top and left of the screen. For example
see the home page of www.necktopcomputer.com.

However, when I add a new page of my own, the top shared border has gaps
above and to the left of the border.
See www.necktopcomputer.com/newpage.

Can anyone suggest how I might get the top shared border to be flush top and
left with new pages that I add to the existing web?

Help would be greatly appreciated. I have not been able to find anything in
the HTML that is suggestive, but I may have missed something.

Many thanks. -- Sam

Open up the page top.htm in _borders folder and in Page Properties set the
left and top margins to =0

Many thanks. I can get the results I want now, but I have to apply the Page
Property change youi describe below to each page that I create, not just to
the border page. But that is OK. -- sam

Take a look at the HTML source code. The one that looks the way you
want:
<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" bgcolor="#FFFFCC">

The one you created:
<body bgcolor="#FFFFCC">

I solve this problem by creating a template in FP with the custom tags
I want to use and using the template as the starting point for all new
pages.
