A client wants his link bar updated to all pages on his website (about 300 pages)The link bar is a shared boarder on each page. How can I update this all at the same time without updating each page one at a time. Common sense tells me there must be a way to do this (but then is there common sense with M$)

1. Turn hidden directories turned on. In the FP
choose Tools>Web settings, and Advanced and check the box Show hidden files.
2. Find the directory named _boarder in that directory you will find, left.htm,right.htm,top.htm, bottom.htm.

"Change which pages are displayed on a navigation bar

You can change the hyperlinks that are displayed on a navigation bar. For example, if you have a navigation bar that displays buttons for Back, Next, and Home, you can change the navigation bar to display buttons for the top-level pages instead.

You can display the following hyperlinks on a navigation bar:

Hyperlinks to pages on the same level as the current page
Hyperlinks to pages under the current page (child level)
Hyperlinks to pages above the current page (parent level)
Hyperlinks to the child pages of the home page
Hyperlinks to pages at the top level of your web
Back and Next hyperlinks for browsing a sequence of same-level pages
A hyperlinkto the web's home page or to the page's parent page
In Page view, double-click the navigation bar.
Under Hyperlinks to add to page, specify the hyperlinks you want to display.
Note If you change a navigation bar in a shared border, the change will affect all pages using that shared border. "
