Just when I think I am done, and can publish, I read something that I need to
change, becasue FP has it wrong in the program. I used blank page, now I
read (after I have done 32 pages) that I need to change the default html to
something else, this site-
http://www.webaim.org/techniques/frontpage/

I DO NOT know what to use based on this sentance, that is IF I figure out
how to even do it- The template will vary based on the (X)HTML syntax version
you choose—HTML 4.0 Strict, HTML 4.01 Transitional, XHTML 1.0 strict or XHTML
1.0 transitional, etc
I have this in my code-

</script>

<style><!--
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
color: white;
background-color: #6A8341;
}-->
</style>
</head>

Thanks for any help.
 
Also, when the site says 3 things, this one, Add a DOCTYPE declaration using
shortcuts, do I have to do them too? Or can I just do one?
 
Ok, so I think I figured it out, I have created a brand new page, and all my
pics, and text, rows etc, and I put this at the top of my code-

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

and my page works in the http://validator.w3.org/check

But then when I add my simple text buttons using Frontpage insert
interactive buttons, (no hover) I get errors-

This page is not Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional!

1. Error - Line 11 column 29: required attribute "TYPE" not specified.
<script language="JavaScript">

2. Error - Line 174 column 547: there is no attribute "FP-STYLE".
....Line 174 column 281: there is no attribute "FP-STYLE".
....s/buttons/button_bh1.gif')" fp-style="fp-btn: Simple Text 1; fp-font:
Times N


3. Error - Line 174 column 731: there is no attribute "FP-TITLE".
roportional: 0; fp-orig: 0" fp-title="Back to Home"></a></font></td>

Where do I go to find someone good to fix all my pages, in css? I have so
had it, thanks, Susie
 
Ignore the errors related to javascript.

First of all who said your pages have to validate...?
The first thing is do they work?
Some of the errors are not that hard to fix..
Like this......
| <script language="JavaScript">
Change to this...
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

So now change you code snippets so that don't happen again.
But it will and you will know the "Fix"
The others I would have to see the page in question...
Looks like the page is not too bad
(like some that I have done with 174 errors)
The trick is learning how to fix the errors and what causes them in the
first place.
Don't think that I just know this stuff it has taken YEARS to absorb the
little knowledge I have.

Thanks so much for your reply Steve and John:) I havent published yet, the
thing is it looks great in preview in browser, IE. I am so proud of the way
it has turned out, but very scared that it will be a mess when published.
And I was just about to publish until I read that part I posted in my first
post. I just trust that FP is gonna put the correct code in. I know I have
a huge amount of things to learn.
 
"The trick is learning how to fix the errors and what causes them in the
first place."

The simple text buttons are the problem. I only have 2 at the bottom of my
page, Back to Home, and View Gallery.

<p align="center"><font size="3"><a href="index.htm">
<img border="0" id="img13" src="images/buttons/button_bh1.gif" height="20"
width="115" alt="Back to Home"
onmousedown="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img13',/*url*/'images/buttons/button_bh2.gif')"
onmouseup="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img13',/*url*/'images/buttons/button_bh1.gif')"
fp-style="fp-btn: Simple Text 1; fp-font: Times New Roman; fp-font-size: 12;
fp-font-color-normal: #030303; fp-font-color-hover: #FFFFFF;
fp-font-color-press: #FFFFFF; fp-img-hover: 0; fp-transparent: 1;

OK, Do you see where is has "fp-style"
Remove the fp- so it says "style"

Like...
fp-style="fp-btn: Simple Text
change to
style="fp-btn: Simple Text

You might as well remove the title one too
Like
fp-title="Back to Home"
to
title="Back to Home"

What the error is all about is the fp- before the style
It is not necessary so just remove it...
