This template allows you to:
Download a nearly finished site to your machine.  Add and delete pages to the navigation with drag/drop ease.  Change button and banner text with ease.  Customize page content to suit your needs.  Publish to your FrontPage-enabled host with the click of a button.

Page Components:
The page components can be changed in any art program. There is a financial-1.html  file in _includes/financial-1 html as well as the original psd file in images/psd/financial-1.psd.

Changing Button Names

The names that appear on navigation bar buttons are dynamically generated by FrontPage based upon the names that appear on the page titles & in the Navigation View flow chart.  You can change the names to suit your needs provided the names are brief enough to fit on the button graphics. The page banner names are also pulled from the page titles.

To change the names on navigation buttons:

1

Switch to FrontPage Navigation View.

2

Right click on the page icon that represents the link you wish to change.

3

Type a new name

4

Right click in the blue area, and selecting "Apply Changes."

Adding Pages

It's easy to create new pages and add them to the navigation bars.  You can expand the navigation bars to accommodate as many pages as you need. If you extend the page down, the left banner and top graphic may move and separate. To adjust this simply place your curser directly beneath the left navigation menu and hit enter repeatedly until the page tightens up. If it then extents your page to long just place your curser in the left column and hit delete and it will balance out. This is a little bit difficult when you have the news box on the page.

To add a page to the navigation bars:

1

In navigation view, select and open a page that exists on the same level of the chart as the page you wish to add.

2

Save it as a new page.

3

Drag it onto the Navigation View flow chart.

4

In the Navigation View, rename the page to suit your needs.

5

Customize the content and save.

Deleting Pages

You can delete a page from your navigation bar without deleting it from your web by clicking on the page to highlight it in the Navigation View, pressing the "delete" button, and selecting "Remove this page from all navigation bars."  To delete the page entirely, select that option instead.

Include Files

The head banner,  news,  top menu, & footer, in this web are Include Files. You will find these files located in a folder called _includes.  Editing a single Include File will allow you to change certain chunks of information, site wide quickly and efficiently.  Just change 1 file in the includes folder.  You can create as many different files as you like. Includes files are a real time saver.

To Change The Banner

Open the includes/main_banner.htm file. Replace the graphic with your own graphic and save. By changing this one graphic every page will be updated throughout your site. Be sure to keep the file name and size the same or else you will have to reinsert the banner on each page.  Remember any changes to this file will effect every page on your site where this file is inserted. Be sure to maintain the size (545 x 53 pixels) so that it is compatible in Netscape as well as IE. You can also use FP word art or any other art program to construct your own banner. If you prefer, email us and we will make the identical banner for you within 15 days of your purchase.  There is a blank sign board in your images file and the original psd file. The current banner was created in Adobe Photoshop..
The top page title banner is part of the FrontPage theme. It reflects the title of your page. keep this in mind when saving your new pages. To delete the banner just place your curser over it and hit delete.

Contact Form
This is a standard contact form which is presently configured for FrontPage. I highly recommend that you convert the form to a PHP or CGI form for increased security and flexibility options.

Style Sheet

This template uses a cascading style sheet to control fonts and colors. You can change colors throughout the entire site simply be changing this 1 file.     Open the file financial.css and it is safe to change wherever you see hex numbers IE:#000000
