The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q180308 SYMPTOMS
If you use a 16-bit version of Netscape Navigator 3.0 to view a FrontPage
disk-based web, the page banner will appear as a broken link icon.
CAUSE
The 16-bit version of Netscape Navigator does not support long file names. The file name used for the
FrontPage page banner is created as a long file name not as an 8.3 MS-DOS file name. It is derived from
a combination of the file name of the page and the file name of the image used by the page banner.
RESOLUTION
To view the page banner in a 16-bit version of Netscape Navigator, publish the Web to a Web server
by following these steps:
- In FrontPage Explorer, open the Web you want to publish.
- On the File menu, click Publish FrontPage Web.
NOTE: If you published this Web once before, the Publish dialog box will
appear. Click More Webs.
- In the Publish FrontPage Web dialog box, type the Uniform Resource
Locator (URL) of the file you want to publish. For example, type the
following
where <Web> is the name of your Web.
- Click OK.
