Lets suppose, heaven forbid, you make a mistake, like typing in some quick
notes that you intend to go back and format in HTML. Then you go to work in
FrontPage and you can't find the notes. So you type what you remember in the
proper place in cells in a table.
Then you go to a browser and the notes appear. At the beginning of the
page ahead of the first table. So you go back to FrontPage and search in
Normal and HTML trying to make sense of what you find. You find the text of
the notes in HTML and move it where it belongs, but nothing shows up in
Normal View.
The final solution is to make a new table and move each of the parts and
wipe out the old table.
Here is a simplified example with all the concealing verbage gone away.
What happens in a browser and in FrontPage is discussed below.
<html>
<body>
<table width="50%">
<tr>
<td>
This is block 1
</td>
</tr>
This is block 2
<tr>
<td>
This is block 3
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
In browsers, this shows up as
This is block 2
This is block 1
This is block 3
the middle test of the example being displayed before the table.
But in FrontPage, what shows up is
........................
.. This is block 1 .
........................
.. This is block 3 .
........................ <this being an outline dotted box of the table.
So the text in the middle, This is Block 2, doesn't show up at all in
Normal mode, not where it actually is and not where a browser would display
it.
Buggy, buggy, buggy.
