IIS - How do I stop Frontpage from inserting values for slideshow images
Asked By Whiterabbit
23-Oct-09 12:14 AM
I have a web from Allwebco that has a slideshow. The photos are landscape and
portrait. When I upload the slideshow file frontpage puts in H & W dimensions
W=500 H=333. I do not want these because it distorts the photos in portrait
mode. It only affects IE browsers, for some reason my firefox ignores these
numbers and displays the image as I made them. Is there any way I can stop FP
from putting these values in? Or, is there code that will tell IE to display
the image how it was created?
Many thanks,
Jim

I am not aqainted with Allwebco products, but if the slideshow uses
JavaScript to swap large images, then ALL these images will be rendered at
the same size, regardless of the original size of the image. it is not
FrontPage doing this - it is the slideshow JavaScript.
You need a slideshow that completely replaces the image tag in a container,
rather than swap the image src attributes.

Or you could make FrontPage completely ignore the image tag by pacing it in
a HTMLmarkup webbot, and remove any width and height from the tag.
In code view it will be similar to:

or batch resize your images before you use them in the slideshow...IrFanview
is free and great for batch processing/resizing/optimizing/renaming etc.

So both are done and everything finally works.
Thanks to all who helped.

Frontpage is Dead - Conversion to Expression (Web) Almost Impossible IIS Microsoft in its wisdom abandoned Frontpage in 2007 along with all of its users. The replacement Expression (Web) is fraught with bugs, and has yet to become stable. It has not yet been STEEP learning curve (actually many) for those who want to convert exisitng Frontpage webs to Expression. Many elect not to do so. MS has shot itslef in the foot by abandoning for the product. These are: 1 / small business owners who have easily built their own web site in Frontpage, 2 / web designers for those small business owners, and 3 / those who have created large hobby websites. For them to convert to Expression will not be easy - using FP Extensions are out, as are many other FP features
it "going away" and being completely replaced with Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 and Microsoft Expression Web? We have a number of folks who do some minor work on pages, though they are not web dev. So, their concern of course, is having to move to a whole new program what we need to prepare them for?

For they stop make FrontPage a long time a go! And web server will one by one stop using FrontPage Add-ons too! Some web server have started already! The last ever version of FrontPage is FrontPage 2003. There will no longer even supported by Microsoft. As you said, the replacements are SharePoint Designer and Expression Web.

Expression Web can be used and will support all webbots and FrontPage components in the existing web site, but does not have a navigation view. FrontPage Navigation components cannot be edited or but will not be removed. Make a backup of the website, then open it in Expression Web and see what happens.
