Basic Instructions....
- Make a new web...
- Go to File/New/Web (2000)
or File/New/Page or Web
(2002).
- In 2002, you will need
to click "Web Template"
in the right side taskbar.
- Choose the Flexible
Sport web template, and
specify the location you
want to publish to.
- Click "OK" and wait
for FrontPage to create
your new web.
- Preview your new web...
- Go to File/Preview in
Browser.
- Click on Internet Explorer
and click Preview.
- A browser window will
open with your new web.
Preview the pages of the
web and decide what pages
will be in your web site.
- Modify your new web...
- Add new pages
Open a page that has the
layout the way you want
it, then go to File/Save
As. Save the page under
a new name - be sure to
change the page title as
well! Then, go to Navigation
View and drag your new page
into the navigation structure.
]
- Rename existing
pages
If you would like
to use an existing page
but want to rename it, you
may easily do this in Folders
View. Right-click on the
file name and/or the page
title and choose "Rename"
to rename your file.
- Delete pages from
your web
Right-click on the
pages you wish to delete
in your Folder List, in
Folder View, or in Navigation
View, then select "Delete."
- Add your own layout
if necessary
This page has been
very carefully formatted
with different nesting tables
so that it resizes both
vertically and horizontally.
Do not drag on any table
lines - you may "freeze"
the page so that it no longer
resizes properly. We also
suggest that you do not
directly add columns to
this layout, as you may
accidentally "freeze" the
page so that it no longer
resizes. Instead, delete
the page template content,
then go to Table/Insert/Table
to add your own table in
the center area. You may
click within a table and
go to Table > Select > Table
to get a better idea of
the table structure of this
page.
If you want to get rid
of the right column,
you will need to delete
two cells -- the right column
cell and the black "divider"
cell. To do this, you will
need to go through a few
steps. First, click in the
right column, go to Table
> Select > Table and hit
backspace to delete the
first nested table. Then,
click in the now empty table
cell, hold, and drag to
the left, then down to highlight
the four right cells --
two cells on the right and
the two "black" cells on
the left. (When highlighted,
the "black" cells will look
white, and the grey cells
will look black.) Right-click
and select "Delete Cells."
- Add your content!
Please see the Swish
page for additional information
on modifying the Swish movies.
Click on the buttons on
the left to view information
about accessibility and
logos.
- Publish your web!
- Go to File/Publish Web.
- Type in the URL of your
web site. For example, http://www.yoursite.com.
If you don't want to overwrite
your existing web site but
just want to publish it
temporarily to preview it,
publish it to a subfolder
like this: http://www.yoursite.com/test.
- Type in your user name
and password when prompted.
- If you are publishing
to a new folder, FrontPage
may prompt you to "create
a new web." Go ahead and
click OK.
- Then, click Publish.
FrontPage will publish your
web. When it's done, you'll
be able to click to view
your published site!

Special Instructions...
Open the include
files (include_topbuttons.htm
and include_copyright.htm to edit
the top buttons or the copyright
statement.
Edit the top
right sport pictures as needed.
You may change the pictures
using the ones shown on the home
page.
Edit your Team
Name area. The "your team name"
is a transparent gif that allows
the team colors to show through
on each page. You may want to use
your own logo as a transparent gif,
or within a defined "box" area,
if you will be using multiple color
schemes on different pages. If you'll
be using the same color scheme on
every page, you'll just want to
make sure that your logo "blends
in" with the background color.
Edit your team
colors. If you go into HTML
view, at the top of the page (usually
"greyed-out") are some lines of
code that look like this:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.color1 { background-color: #1E238E
}
.color2 { background-color:
#F1D23D; font-size: 10pt; font-weight:
bold; color: #000000; font-family:
Verdana, Arial, Helvetica }
...
-->
</style>
"color1" is the
main, darker color, and "color2"
is the lighter color. You will need
to find the hexadecimal value of
your team colors and replace the
"#1E238E" and "#F1D23D." For a listing
of colors, go to
www.lynda.com/hexh.html. The
colors listed here are "web-safe"
colors, and may not completely match
up with your team colors. If you
need the code for your specific
team colors, send us a digital logo
and we'll give you the code for
free. Email
support@johngaltstools.com.
