I can't seem to resolve a problem with interactive buttons in Front Page.
They appear when initially published, but the images are all lost upon
mouseover. What do I do to fix this?
 
Interactive Buttons (IB) will not work correctly in shared borders.
Revise your site to use DWT (Dynamic Web Template) instead. See
http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/fp/b/buttons/ for details.

All the links to the buttons are referring to your hard drive. Make
sure you open the web before editing a page, and that all images are
saved in the web before using them.
Also, rename the folder storing your website so that the full stops are
removed - you may have to publish the web to a clean folder to do this.

Thanks very much. I don't completely understand your advice though, regarding:
"Also, rename the folder storing your website so that the full stops are
removed - you may have to publish the web to a clean folder to do this,"
specifically the "full stop" comment.
Thanks again.
 
All the images for the interactive buttons don't appear to be on your
server. The initial image is but the other ones aren't.

Also, many of your images don't show. They point to locations on your hard
drive. Ex:

file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Webmaster/My%20Documents/My%20Web%20Sites/www.DummerstonSchool.org/images/

You need to import all images into your web first. Then insert them, Save
the page and re-publish.
 
full stop is a period
also remove ampersands from folder and file names, and stick to
lowercase...and no spaces as well.
