By default, FrontPage uses the OnClick event with collapsible outlines. You can have the outlines collapse and expand when the mouse passes over the collapsible outline if you run the dynOutline() procedure when the mouse passes over a line item. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Start FrontPage and create the collapsible outline.

    For more information about collapsible outlines, click Microsoft FrontPage Help on the Help menu, type To create a collapsible outline in the Office Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topic.


  2. Click the HTML tab.


  3. Find the following line of code:
    <body onclick="dynOutline()">


  4. Change the code so that it looks the following:
    <body onmouseover="dynOutline()" onclick="dynOutline()">
