Implementation

The creation of a wrap-around graphics web template requires the use of image editors, the FrontPage Theme Editor and tables to position the graphics in the shared borders. The following steps will be taken in the implementation phase:

Major Elements

Our Web will consists of two major elements: 

1. FrontPage theme that defines the look of the navigation buttons, page banner image, separators,  background image and the text attributes for these items.
2. Web page with shared borders that contain the navigation components, wrap-around graphics and tables that hold these items in place. 

Note: Because of the lack of support for shared border background images in FrontPage 2000, Wrap-around themes are limited to type 'r' and 'n' wrap-around themes in FrontPage 2000. FP FrontPage 2002 can supports a type 'c' and type 'o' wrap-around themes.
