Hi All, About a week back I posted the details of a problem I was having with multiple advertising banners over-writing the navigation bars on my rootsweb hosted website. I have taken some time digesting the responses and investigating the main thrust of the advice which was that I should abandon my out-of-date coding, (i.e. using frames and tables) and adopt more user-friendly coding involving SSI. As a trial I have modified the first of some fifty frames of my site at: _http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~dfsgal/_ (http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~dfsgal/) using FP includes to place my navigation bar top and bottom of each page. So far I have modified just forty pages but with another four-hundred to go and this is a very time consuming process. Having looked at the sites suggested as examples I'm not convinced that my Frames site was all that all that unfriendly. (Actually in the eight years of my Photo Tours site's development the only 'complaints' by visitors have been that I haven't yet covered their particular area of interest.) None of the SSI examples I looked at allow me to do what I was able to do with Frames. Using Frames I was able to place a fixed navigation bar top of screen or side of screen or both. The Visitor could make a selection from any of my index pages and a scroll the image in the main viewing area without the navigation bar scrolling off the screen. My modified site no longer does that. The user must now be at either the top or bottom of the scrolling page before they can change to another location in the site. In attempting to understand SSI have I missed something along the way? Regards, Sandy PS For those who now find their sites have attracted Rootsweb banners that were not there before, here is the official explantion from the help-desk. A response to your Help Desk message, "WEBMASTER: Photo Tour of D&G Graveyards," of Wed, 22 Aug 2007, at 9:26 a.m. follows: ------------------------- Homepages were a perk for contributors to RootsWeb at a qualifying level. RootsWeb stopped accepting contributions in 2000 when we were purchased by MyFamily.com. MFC (now TGN) has supported Homepages accounts without charge or banners for the subssequent 7 years. The banners are now being added to all supported accounts to reinforce and emphasize the TGN community. If you have been using frames, you will see banners in each frame, as has been the case at Freepages. Using more up-to-date and user friendly coding for page layout (CSS) will result in a simple and discrete header at the top of each page.
