Pasting from FrontPage to Product Description?

Hi Bob.

 

Do not paste anything directly from Frontpage. It may contain hidden code on the page.

 

Paste the code first to a raw text editor such as Notepad. Or better still, get something like Notepad++ which checks syntax while you work.

 

You will then have to remove some of the code such as the html tags, everything in the <head></head> tags, and the actual <body></body> tags, etc. What you should end up with is just what you want to see. If you have any changes to the look of the text you will have to use inline tags.

 

I would suggest that if you are having hair-pulling moments already, go to a good tutorial site, such as w3 schools (http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp) for more info.

 

If you wish, why not attach the page to the post here and someone will clean it up for you to give you an idea on how it should look.

 

Hope this helps in a small way.

 

Mark.
