| Add a time stamp to a page
(Last updated:____)
|
Add a time stamp to a page to
display the time and/or date the page was last changed. For example, a
time stamp lets site visitors know whether the information on your
site has changed since their last visit.
- In Page view, position the insertion point where you want
to place a time stamp.
- Choose Insert menu - Date and Time.
- Specify the type of time stamp to display.
- Specify a format for the date and for the time.

| Thumbnail defined |
You can use FrontPage to
create a thumbnail, which is a small version of a picture that a site
visitor clicks in order to follow a hyperlink to the full-size
picture.
A thumbnail is useful when you have a large picture that might take
a long time to download, depending on the site visitor's system.
Rather than forcing the site visitor to download a large picture, you
can provide a thumbnail, allowing the visitor to choose whether to
view the full-size version.

| Set properties for creating thumbnails |
You can specify how you want
Microsoft FrontPage to create thumbnails for pictures. You can set
properties for the thumbnail size and borders.
- Choose Tools menu -Page Options - click
the AutoThumbnail tab.
- In the Set box, click the option you want to
use for specifying a size, then in the Pixels
box, enter the value in pixels.
For example, if you want thumbnail pictures to be 75 pixels
wide, click Width and then enter 75.
The height of the thumbnail will be sized to maintain the
proportions (aspect ratio) of the original picture. Or, if you
select Shortest side and then enter 75,
the shortest side of any thumbnail picture, whether height or
width, will be 75 pixels.
- To specify a border, select Border thickness,
and then in the Pixels box, enter a value for the
thickness of the border in pixels.
- If you want the graphic to be beveled, select Beveled
edge. If you have also specified a border thickness, the
thumbnail will have a beveled edge inside of a border.
