How do I show redundant site info, such as a banner and site navigation
buttons? I want ot show this on every page but not sure how to do it.
 
Interesting choice of the word "redundant" - what does it mean in the
context of your question?

To answer the question, use Shared Borders, or include pages, or dynamic web
templates (FP2003 only).
 
Use ANYTHING but shared borders. With FP going away, that will permanently
break your site for any other editor.

My two (Australian) cents worth

1.) To Andrew.
Yes, I found the word "redundant" strange. Perhaps the OP means replicated
or duplicated, i.e. something that appears more than once and therefore may
seem to be redundant but actually isn't, because if you remove it, the code
won't work as required

2.) To Windsun.
Yes, I tried shared borders for a while, but then gave them up.

Because I didn't have a web provider that supported SSI, I used a very nice
Perl script that include text from another file *before* you upload it.
Now I have a provider that has SSI (below), I find SSI very useful.

And if Expession Web won't support shared borders, yet another reason not to
use them.
 
Okay "redundant" was a bad choice of words. I am using FP 2003. There seems
to be a debate about shared borders. So I guess I should use include pages or
dynamic web template. Yes I want to display some duplicate info on all pages.
Is there a place to go find a FP tutorial?

which is why I suggested the other two methods.

The Help files in FP would be a good start. www.frontpagewiz.com may also
have some pointers for you.
