Can someone tell me when I do certain modificationd ie: Putting a border around text or buttons, why does the preview mode show something else ? ie: I put a border around a button and added padding when I go into preview mode there is extra space as if my padding value doubled. Is there a reason for this ? Should not preview mode show exactly what's there ? It's the same program, it's not if I was viewing it in another browser... Help!!

Very true. If you do screen captures and paste them into a Word document, you can't see the pictures in Normal View. But in Print View or Preview, you can.

Oops. For some reason I was thinking Word in my previous message. All browsers are not made alike. I always had conflicts with Netscape not showing things the way that I could see fine in IE. It's just something that you have to compare and work around until you're satisfied.

According to the documentation w/FP '00 and also some other sources you shouldn't view your FP pages anywhere besides the view offered by a browser. For example you can go to preview your web site directly from FP BUT your .asp's won't be available.
I've also found going direct, I do a lot of testing on my local drive, in my browser to work BUT the refresh button doesn't work for .asp's and I have to go to home or another site and then back again to get a good view.
Linda is right about Word though. Many things in MS are viewable or not viewable in page previews versus print.
Hope you find a reasonable work around-
