you can have more than one set of fp menus in one shared border. i have to
warn you though...once your web gets complicated shared borders and fp's
auto menus will drive you nuts.

| Hi, Bonx!
|
| Thanks for your reply.
|
| I am surprised that I can't name several shared borders!!! Could you
please
| elaborate
| on your suggestion of using include files. How can I attain my goal by
using
| them
|
| My dilema is I have a navigation bar in the shared board, and I want it to
| include in
| some cases the same level buttons plus the home button, which I do want it
| to say button, but instead says either pinciple or up, and in the third
level
| down I want to have same level pages plus home and parent buttons that
| actually call pages by their own name ex: Bookings, Home etc
|
| As you see my problem not only involves having two different shared
borders,
| but making the nav bar show the right lables for me, and not the default
ones
| by MSFP.
|
| I thought I would ask you that, too, since I already have your attention.
|
| I really appreciate your help
|
