Converting Frontpage to Expression Problems
Converting Frontpage to Expression Problems
- My computer fried last week and when I bought a new system I learned that Microsoft Frontpage had been discontinued. Since my website was created in Frontpage and it was so user friendly, I decided to go with Expression Web 2. Just bought Expression Web 2 and imported my old Frontpage website. Everything looks good in EW2 but when I publish, all my hyperlinks overlap. When I go back in EW2 to design there are several "anchors" all over the page. Is there an easy way to get these pages to convert so I don't have to redesign all of the pages. I'm still learning EW2 so it may be something simple, but when I used Frontpage the hyperlinks looked and worked fine. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

- UK,
There is a 'white paper' regarding moving from using Front page to Expression Web at the MS Learn Expression Web site:
http://expression.microsoft.com/en-us/cc197140.aspx
The 'white paper' is at the bottom of the above linked page. There's a lot of other good stuff on the page, as well.
Cheers,

There is no way to answer your specific question unless you post a link to your page. - Sounds like a layout using layers.

Yeah, that be true.

- You are using bad VML code. You can't expect it to look right in IE until you clean that up. (Opera, Chrome, Firefox, and EW's Design View ignores VLM styling. IE tries to deal with it, and shows the result you are seeing.)
Get rid of all the
<!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:* { behavior: url(#default#VML) } o\:* { behavior: url(#default#VML) } .shape { behavior: url(#default#VML) } <![endif]--> <!--[if gte mso 9]> <xml><o:shapedefaults v:ext="edit" spidmax="1027"/> </xml><![endif]--> and so onYou also have code errors that EW will show you in Code View.
Frankly, it would probably be faster to recreate the page in EW - without cutting and pasting anything from Word, FrontPage, or the current page. - I checked the page you list in both Firefox and IE8 and it looks displays OK for me. Not checked in IE 6 or 7 though. Both your menu and the listing of files would be better suited to an unordered list styled with your style sheet rather than using non breaking spaces and the <br> tag.
Looking at the head section you have a long list of styles you have let EW create for you. Read this and see if it helps any

You also do not need all of the table heights you have and empty cells.
You can set up a basic template for the site which would include your masthead, the left side menu and the footer. Develop your content and attach the DWT to the content pages. Depending on your comfort zone, you could also move away from using tables to a css based layout.

Tina Clarke has an excellent ebook on using DWT's with Expression Web http://any-expression.com/expression-web/ebooks/expression-web-dwt-ebook.htm
Sample of what you can do using an external style sheet and dwt which will make maintenance of your site much easier

The VML stuff was cleaned up since the original post. :)
