HTML is reformatted when component properties are modified in HTML view in FrontPage

This article was previously published under Q219873

SYMPTOMS

When you change the tag properties of a Microsoft FrontPage component in HTML view, the HTML code is reformatted to the original HTML.

You may receive the following error message when you return to Normal view:
The contents of a FrontPage component have been modified. These contents will be overwritten when you save this page.

CAUSE

FrontPage preserves the HTML of a FrontPage component in Normal view.

RESOLUTION

If you want to make modifications to the FrontPage component settings, use the component properties in Normal view. Or, if you want to customize properties of the component that might not be exposed in the user interface, edit the file in another text editor, such as Notepad.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

APPLIES TO
  • Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003
  • Microsoft FrontPage 2002 Standard Edition
  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
