Add a Title

Add an Address Footer

For example, the title of this page is Basics: Add a Title and an Address Footer

Note that the title is different from the filename (The filename of this page is basics4.htm)

The title may or may not be the same as the headline at the top of the page. (The headline on this page is Basics: FrontPage 98:  Add a Title and an Address Footer.)

Make your title descriptive. The title is also the phrase that appears in an end user's Bookmarks or Favorites list.

Click on the General tab.

The quickest way to add a title is to do so when you save the page for the first time.

Notice that the file name in the Page Location text box will change to the first eight letters of your title. 

If at this point you click on OK, FrontPage Express will try to save it to a web folder.

Instead, click on the As File button in the lower right corner of the dialog box. The Save As File dialog box will come up.  Navigate to the drive and directory where you want to store your file. Name the file and click on Save.

Click on the General tab.
