FrontPage 2000 themes can be viewed in the
Themes dialog box when you
select
Themes on the
Format menu in FrontPage.
The theme sample shows you all the different layout and component
possibilities within a particular theme. Applying a theme to your Web does
not automatically add all of the components shown in the
Sample of Theme
window to your Web pages.
A theme does not define the location of navigation bars, the layout of a
page, the template on which a page is based, or the structure of the Web.
These are all different features that work closely together, but they are
not specifically part of a theme. A theme simply alters the appearance of
certain elements on the page. Not all of those elements shown in the Theme
preview may appear on each page.
For example, navigation bars are not automatically added to your page if
they are not on your page before you apply a theme. And text will not be
formatted automatically in the Heading 1 style if this formatting was not
applied to your text before you applied the theme.
A theme is just a definition of colors and graphics that enhances the look
and feel of your Web site by creating uniformity. The bullets, horizontal
lines, navigation controls, and font options are applied to the whole Web
automatically.
Some settings, such as the background properties of a page, become
unavailable when you apply a theme. For additional information about thesesettings, click the article number below
