FRONTLOOK TIP OF THE MONTH
After applying a Super Theme to your shared
border web, there may be information that you
wish to copy from the old shared borders to
the new Super Theme Shared Borders.
The FrontLook Tip this month shows you how to
copy information from the old shared border
file to the new one.

FRONTLOOK QUICK TIPS
GETTING THE PAGE TO LOOK RIGHT IN THE NETSCAPE
BROWSER
If your page views fine in Internet Explorer
but not in the Netscape browser, check out
the following common fixes.
1) If the Netscape browser sees there is
nothing in a table cell, it may not even
render it at all. The easiest way to fix
this is to place a space character in the
cell.
2) The Netscape browser does not support a
table's cell height setting. This means that
tables that look tall in IE, might seem
short in Netscape. The easiest way to force
the table height is to place Shift-Returns
in the table cell or use a transparent gif
to set the cell height.
3) The Netscape browser is very picky about
table errors. This means that any incomplete
table tag sets may stop the Netscape browser
from rendering the rest of the page. You may
have to rework the page to discover the
table error.
FRONTLOOK MENU PROBLEMS IN FP2002
We have noticed that the FrontLook menu
doesn't always work properly in the FP2002.
We are working on this and will be releasing
a free update soon to correct this problem.
In the meantime, please use the
Insert->Web Components menu and then select
the Additional Components... item in the left
panel. Then select the applet you wish to use
in the right panel. Press the Finish button
to bring up the FrontLook User Interface
