Archived from groups: microsoft>public>frontpage>client (more info?)

I have two questions I need to see if anyone can help with.

I attended some InfoPath training earlier this week and they created a form
field that I am wondering if it is possible to also do the same thing with a
FP form.
If I have a dropdown field with 3 different options is is possible to make
the next filed be populated from what a user chooses from that first field?
Example: If the first field says Great Plains the second field will give them
versions of only Great Plains to pick from. If the choose CRM in the first
field they will only get versions of CRM in the second field.
It is possible in InfoPath, please let me know if that is also possible in
FP.

My second question is that I usually open our site and work in it live in
FP. Yesterday I opened the site live and noticed that I have 2 of everypage
listed. Does anyone know what that might be from? Are there two pages of
everything on our web server as well. Will it cause problems if I just start
deleting the duplicate pages?

Thanks again for all the help.
Shane.

You can do the dependant dropdown with JavaScript - here's a link to one
example: http://www.plus2net.com/javascript_tutorial/dropdown-list.php
and here's another:

First Question:

Can be done using JavaScript to populate the second and subsequent
fields based on the selection of the first, or using server side
scripting and a database to populate the subsequent fields.


Second Question:

There should only be one copy of any file in any folder. However, on a
Unix server index.htm and Index.htm are 2 different files, and will be
listed by FrontPage as such, though it is unlikely that every file will
be duplicated in this fashion.

Download FP Cleaner from http://95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm and run
the routines that delete the temporary files and web cache files. The
duplication could be due to a corrupted cache file. Deleting one of the
copies could result in both being deleted if corruption is the cause.
