FP: Hyperlinks Are Updated Even Though You Choose Not to Update Them
This article was previously published under Q318095
In Microsoft FrontPage, when you try to rename a file and you click
No when you are prompted with the following message
There are x pages that have hyperlinks to this page.
Do you want to update these pages so that the hyperlinks will not be broken?
the hyperlinks are updated anyway.
This problem can occur if you are using the Microsoft FrontPage 2000 client on a server that is based on FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions or SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft.
To work around this problem, copy the file and then rename the copy. To do this, follow these steps:
- In FrontPage, open your Web.
- Right-click the page you want to rename, and then click Copy on the shortcut menu.
- Right-click the Folder list, and then click Paste on the shortcut menu. A copy of the page with a file name similar to the following is created:
pagename_copy(1).htm
- Right-click the original Web page in the Folder list, and then click Delete on the shortcut menu.
- Right-click the copy of the Web page you created in step 3, and then click Rename on the shortcut menu. Type the file name that you want to use, and then press ENTER.
The new copy of your Web page has no links that point to it.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Standard Edition
- Microsoft FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions
- Microsoft SharePoint Team Services
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.
