The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000

This article was previously published under Q289358

SYMPTOMS

After you apply Dynamic HTML effects (DHTML) to different cells in a table and then view the table in a Web browser, the DHTML effects may not occur as expected.

For example, let's say you apply DHTML effects to the first two cells of a table to change the border color of the cell to a different color when the mouse pointer passes over the cell. When you view the page in a Web browser, you see only the DHTML effects applied to the first cell.

NOTE: Some DHTML effects may not be supported by your Web browser. For more information about compatibility with other browsers, click Microsoft FrontPage Help on the Help menu, type compatibility in the Office Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topic.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem and have the DHTML effects work when the mouse pointer passes over the cells, add text to the cells that contain the DHTML effects. The DHTML effects will occur when the mouse passes over the text of the cells when viewing the table in your Web browser.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
