i download some templates and when i want open them in frontpage is only text why'?? somebody help templates are css...

[strive4impact]

@zarko364 Hey Zarko! I feel your frustration. I found this process quite a challenge as well. Stick with it! So... CSS is a file that is referenced by the HTML or PHP page.

Any .css file is there to tell the HTML or PHP page how something should look.

Let's say that you have one text that you want to be bold, blue, and 24 pt font. Instead of every time putting that code around the text in the HTML or PHP page, you create a class in the CSS file. Maybe it's called "boldblue".

[strive4impact]

then, you put all the formatting you want into the CSS file, and in the HTML page, you just put the class "boldblue". Okay, that might be difficult to grasp without seeing it. If you want to learn this stuff, just play with it, but one thing that might help is a book by Dave Taylor called "Creating Cool Web Sites". Google it... Dave has got a great style and way of helping that makes it simple, fun, and makes great sense.

Yah... it drove me crazy for a couple of days too, which is why I made the video... Though I would use different music now. That's just weird background music for a video about doing stuff in FrontPage. Ah well. Glad this was helpful for you!

Warmest,

Great video.

Can I get the name of the program you used to record your tutorial?

Thanks

Camtasia... and then I edited it with Sony Vegas.  Hope that's helpful!
