 Last reviewed: March 18, 1998
Article ID: Q170121
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows
  • Microsoft FrontPage 97 for Windows with Bonus Pack
  • Microsoft FrontPage for Windows, version 1.1
  • Microsoft FrontPage for the Power Macintosh, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

The FrontPage Editor does not show the correct title in the Title bar.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs when you import and rename a text (.txt) file by changing the file extension to .htm in FrontPage Explorer.

RESOLUTION

In FrontPage Editor, type a title in the Title box on the General tab in the Page Properties dialog box (click Page Properties on the File menu) or in the Page Title box in the Save As dialog box (click Save As on the File menu).

MORE INFORMATION

When you create a new page in FrontPage Editor, the page is assigned a default title based on the template you used to create it. For example, a blank page based on the normal template will be assigned the following title: 

   [Untitled Normal Page].
NOTE: In FrontPage the default title is based on the text you entered on the first line of the page.
