Does anyone know how to make a link bar pop out menu? Like if i had a photo
gallery link and i had several pages inside how can i make a pop out that
will show the pages.
 
Take at look at:

Creating DHTML Menus in FrontPage 2003

This won't integrate with the FrontPage PhotoGallery component, though.

Thanks but what do you mean by "This won't integrate with the FrontPage
PhotoGallery component, though". I have a page called photo gallery then I
have three more pages. One is Signs, another is Plaques, and the last is
Miscellaneous. will it work then?
 
I presume those pages each display a collection of thumbnail pictures. Did
you create the links from the thumbnails to the full-sized pictures yourself,
of did you do it with a FrontPage PhotoGallery component?

Also, where in this scheme do you want the fly-out menu?

Or am I guessing wrong? If so, please post your site's URL.

your guessing right. I did use the FrontPage PhotoGallery component to do it.
I have a link bar already but just want to add the flyout menu to it. I also
do not yet have a URL. Could you reccomend a server.
 
Neither the FrontPage Link Bar component nor the FrontPage Photo Gallery
component have any dropdown or flyout menu features.

The article I originally cited explains how, somewhat laboriously, you can
use the FrontPage Layers and Behaviors features to create dropdown or flyout
menus, but they won't integrate with or work smoothly with LinkBar or
PhotoGallery components.

Most likely, you're either imagining features that don't exist or hoping
that DHTML menus are a lot easire to create than they actully are.

Alright. Thanks for your help but I have a 3rd party menu maker called Xara
Menu Maker and it allows you to make fly out menus.
