Fully qualified (not relative) hyperlinks

There is one page in my website, which mirrors the current edition of my
newsletter, which I would like Frontpage to make all the address references
fully qualified paths rather than relative to the current location, e.g. <A
HREF="http://travelblogs.com/new.htm"> instead of <A HREF="new.htm">.

This is because I want to cut and paste the html code from this page into my
newsletter provider and don't want to manually adjust all the hyperlinks in
the email to include the full paths (similarly I'd prefer not to have to
manually modify the hyperlinks in this page too as it's mostly cut and paste
and there are a lot of them). If I create the message in Outlook, it handles
this but my mailing list provider software doesn't.

Anyone have any suggestions? I can't seem to find an options setting in
FP2003 to not use relative paths. It would be ideal if it had this setting at
the page level rather than globally...
 
You have to manually create the absolute hyperlinks, because FP can not manage these types of
hyperlinks.
