In FP 2003, I created the home page. Then when I tried to create a second
page (eg, about us), all the text for the 2nd page showed up on the 1st page.
All the pages end up being the same because any change to one is reflect in
all the changes. Thanks for your guidance with this.
 
You are using shared borders, and are placing your content in the
shared border regions of the page.
 
Thanks for the suggestion. However, the behaviour is the same even after I
turned off shared borders. Do you have other suggestions to solve this
problem? Thanks
 
Please give a link to your published web site, or post the html from
an offending page here.
 
Thanks for taking the time to help. I haven't published the site, but here
is the code for one of the pages. -Brad

“It is not easy to determine the nature of music
or why anyone should have a knowledge of it.†-

Confucius (551–479 BC) assigned an important
place to music in the service of a well-ordered
moral universe. He saw music and government as
reflecting one another and believed that only
the superior man who can understand music is
equipped to govern. Music, he thought, reveals
character through the six emotions that it can
portray: sorrow, satisfaction, joy, anger,
piety, love. According to Confucius, great music
is in harmony with the universe, restoring order
to the physical world through that harmony.
Music, as a true mirror of character, makes
pretense or deception impossible. -

The line
<meta name="Microsoft Border" content="tlb, default">
indicates you are using top, left and bottom shared borders on every
page, including this one.
The shared border html will not show in FrontPage code view, but will
appear in the browser View Source (Preview in Browser, View Source and
look for <!--MsNavigation--> or similar comments).

Either remove the unique content from the shared border area, or
remove the shared borders
Format->Shared Borders and clear the boxes.
Select all pages and check "Make default" box to remove from every
page. This will delete the shared border contents, including anything
in them that should be on unique pages.
