I inserted an outlook calendar into my website as described in FP2003 however
I wanted not the calendar as seperate page but be part of one so I can have
other components as well. Any solution is appreciated

Create the page you want with a cell where you want the calendar. Then
use the include page function to include the calendar page you made from
outlook.

Here is an example:
http://www.eclipsme.com/rockledge/Calendar/january06.htm

The calendar itself is a separate page and can be seen here:

Hope this helps.

I like what you did with your calendar Harvey.
Would you tell me the steps you go through to insert the Outlook 2003
calendar into a web page. After I Save the calendar as a web page into a new
folder in my web site. I Insert ->Web Component->Include Content->Page, I
get,
[When you insert a frames page using the Include Page component, FrontPage
cannot display it. To edit the frames page, right-click this message, and
then choose the Open command.]
When I right-click there isn't an Open command.
What I want to ultimately do is when someone clicks on Calendar from any of
the other web pages a new window opens and you can scroll to next month,
previous month, in the same window then when you're done close the window.
Thanks in advance

I am not sure what calendar you were looking at, but here is a simple
calendar which is easy to install

Go to HTML or Code View

Insert in the <head> of any page in which you want the calendar:
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/popupcalendar.js"></script>

Insert in the <body> of any page in which you want the calendar:
<a href="#" onclick="openPopupCalendar();return false;"
title="This opens a scrollable calendar with today's date
highlighted">
<img src="images/display/calendar.gif" alt="" width="40" height="24"
/>Calendar</a>

Copy this js http://tandcl.homemail.com.au/scripts/popupcalendar.js to
scripts/popupcalendar.js
(If you want to copy it to a different folder, alter the name after src= in
the <script> tag)

Copy this gif http://tandcl.homemail.com.au/images/display/calendar.gif to
images/display/calendar.gif
(If you want to copy it to a different folder, alter the name after src in
the <img> tag)

I realise after re-reading your post that my calendar may be *too* simple.
There is no information inside it.

I am not quite sure where you are trying to use the include page
component, but try creating a 1 cell table in the frame. Click in that
cell and choose Insert-Web Component-Included Content-Page. Browse for
the calendar page that you created.

Yes Trevor, I need to put some content in the calendar so other club members
can see the events. I appreciate your response and thoughts though.

Harvey,
I'm using a canned template. I copied one of the other web pages, reneamed
it Calendar and removed everything in one of the frames. I then followed
your instructions about creating a one cell table and then inserting the web
component. That's when I received the error in brackets [] I described
earlier.
Thanks in advance

This is what I did. This may or may not apply to you...

Create a calendar web page. This can be from Outlook, or in my case,
from a previous web. This is an htm page - in other words, a page that
can be brought up on its own. Call it calendar.htm.

Then, I created the 'container' page - menu on the left, header at the
top, etc. I did not use frames for this, but a table. The include page
(calendar.htm) is used in the central cell.

However, it sounds like you are using frames. If this is so, just set
the initial page to the calendar page (calendar.htm).

Or, in re-reading your post, perhaps the outlook page is a frames page.
This seems strange, but who knows. If this is so, bring the outlook page
up in FP and see what page(file) the actual calendar is. Then just use
that page instead of the entire frame in the include page.

The calendar "container page" is a non frames page. It appears that in
Outlook 2003 when you save the calendar as a web page it generates a frame
page. That is apparently what FP2003 is stumbling on. I'm not experienced
enough with FP2003 to modify code and make it work. I think I'll go over to
the Outlook Newgroup and ask how I can generate an Outlook calendar as a
non-frames page.
