My link bar buttons show as text on the web. Anyone know why?

Thanks everyone, I learned a lot from this, using theme allowed me to
customize and do many things that I was not aware of.
 
So let me collect my thoughts. In order to use a style on a link bar, you
have to have a theme set up for the entire page?

Using FP02 w/ 02 extensions on the server, all I get when I upload the page
is a hyperlink list instead of the style I chose in FP. The Preview and
Normal pages are fine in the formatting but when I save it to the server, I
get the basic text/underline format.

See www.passregion3.org for problem
 
You don't need a theme set for the page, but you need to create the custom link running under the FP 2002 SE
- that means doing it in the online web in FP unless you are running a FP 2002 SE local host server based web on your PC

How do you do that exactly? I'm saving everything to the server to begin
with. Is there something else I need to add to the server thru FP?
 
File Open Site and enter the URL as http://www.yoursitename.com/

I've built the entire site online in that way. All changes and creation have
happened without having the actual web site downloaded to the computer. I
tried exactly what you said (and thats the exact way I modify all pages on
the site) but it didn't work.

It still looks perfectly fine when looking at it with FP. I ensured the FP
extensions are up to date even.

Any other suggestions as to what may be the issue?
