Only some of the FP themes will load onto the web. It looks as it should in
the design mode, but does not showup after uploading. Any help would be
appreciated.
 
How are you uploading and can you show us a link?
the most sure-fire method of getting the themes to work right is to http://
publish the entire web (file/ publish web (or site))

If you have published recent changes that don't show up when viewing
the site on line in your browser, try refreshing the browser page.
This drove me crazy until I figured this out. Without the refresh,
you will be viewing the web site cache on your local drive, which will
not show the changes.
 
true enough!
a shift+refresh is also a good way to go (forces a refresh from the server).
This is/was particularly bad with AOL users as AOL was passing cached copies
of pages to the browser from their own server, not the server the site was
actually on.
I was pulling my hair out with the effects of this a few years back when I
made a menu (food menu) for a client that changed daily. Many of her
friends were swearing there was no change, when we knew for a fact that
there was. the common denominator was the users were all AOL subscribers.
the solution was to add _cgi between the file name and the file extension
like menu.htm became menu_cgi.htm... that and a note to shift+refresh...
Welcome to the internet. LOL

yes, try looking at the beginning of www.goodallstudio.com. The Theme of
Slate does not show up. I hope you can help me because I have been
experiencing this problem for the past several years with FP.
 
assuming that your local web is OK just do this:
in FrontPage: tools/ recalculate hyperlinks, tools site settings (advanced
tab) check the "delete temporary files" checkbox.
then; file/ publish web, type in the http:// address. in your case
http://goodallstudio.com and publish your local web up to the server.
that should fix it all up for you.

Did not work. I even started the page over again. Any other suggestions, I am
completely baffled.
 
You're 100% sure it's working on your local web?
if so: hit file/ open web, open the live web and delete all the files and
folders (except _private and _images).
then hit tools/ recalculate hyperlinks, then close the web.
open your local web and hit file publish and publish it up to the server.
you should use http:// publishing.
