Hyperlink
From Web to Web
When creating a hyperlink,
FrontPage shows you a list of all the folders and pages in the current
site. But what if you have a number of other projects, and you'd like to
create a link to a page or file within one of them? Usually, you would
have to either figure out the relative path manually or use an absolute
URL for the link. In FrontPage 2000, there's a much easier way.
Simply use the same procedure for creating any hyperlink: select the text
or object to link from and use the Insert/Hyperlink menu to open the
Create Hyperlink dialog box. At the top of the box, you'll notice a
drop-down menu labeled Look In. Click the menu to display a list showing
the root web (with any of its files and folders) along with any subwebs
you may have. Select the web you want and the dialog box will show a list
of all the files in that web. Choose the page or file you want to link to
and click OK. FrontPage automatically creates a
hyperlink to that file using a relative path.
Add
External Links
FrontPage lets you build a
navigation structure for your site using the Navigation view. When
you add navigation bars to pages, FrontPage sets up each bar
according to the structure you create. What you may not know is
that in addition to linking to files within your site navigation
bars also can contain links to files outside of your site.
To create a link to an outside file, switch to the Navigation
view to display your site structure. Right-click the page under
which you want to add the external link and select External
Hyperlink from the pop-up menu. This will bring up the standard
Create Hyperlink dialog box and allow you to type
in whatever URL you want.
From then on, the external link will show up in the navigation
bars that you place throughout your site. The domain name of the
URL that you type is automatically used as the name of the link in
the navigation structure. To change the name of the link, go to
the Navigation view, right-click the external link and select
Rename from the pop-up menu. Then you can simply type a new name
to make the link look more presentable in your navigation bars.

External Style Sheets
Creating a consistent look for a large Web site can be a difficult task,
but style sheets can help. External style sheets
can be especially helpful since one file can be used throughout
every page on your site.
To link an external style sheet to a page, select the Format/Style
Sheet Links menu. The Link Style Sheet dialog box will list your currently
available style sheets. If there aren't any style sheets in the list, you
can click the Add button to reference a file from anywhere in your current
site, your hard drive, or the Internet. After you've added one or more
sheets to the list, select the ones you would like to link and click OK.
You can also choose to link your style sheets to a few pages or all the
pages in your site.
