FP98: Hover Button & Ad Rotator Only Link To HTTP:// not FILE://

ID: Q190612

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

When you are working with a disk based Web in Microsoft FrontPage 98 and you are using either the Banner Ad Manager or the Hover Button, included with FrontPage, you are unable to link them to an image file on the hard disk.

CAUSE

The Banner Ad Manager and Hover Button are Java applets that have a security architecture that prevents them from accessing files directly from the hard disk. Instead, they can only access files via a Web server using the HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP).
