How to Simplify Your Web Pages
A Web page saved from Word contains many complicated scripts, XML, and several extra files. You want to simplify this file and eliminate the extra files so that you don't have to keep track of them anymore.
To eliminate the complicated scripting and XML, you need to save your document as a filtered Web page:
With your document open in Word, choose File, Save As from the menu.
From the Save as Type list at the bottom, choose Web Page, Filtered.
Save your document.
To eliminate the extra files, save your document as a single file Web page:
With your document open in Word, choose File, Save As from the menu.
From the Save as Type list at the bottom, choose Single File Web Page.
Save your document.
There is no single file format available to simplify the HTML and eliminate the extra files associated with Web pages.
What to Do If You Need to Rearrange Framesets
You have a frameset composed of a smaller page on the left and a larger, main window to the right. You want to move the left frame to the top so that you will have a smaller top frame and a larger main frame below it. How do you do this?
With your frameset open in Word, follow these steps:
Right-click in the left frame and choose Frame Properties. Make a note of the filename (it will usually have an .htm extension) listed in the Initial Page combo box. Cancel out of the Frame Properties dialog box.
Open the Frames toolbar.
Click in the main window (right frame). From the Frames toolbar, click New Frame Above to place a new frame above the main frame.
Click in the smaller left window. From the Frames toolbar, click Delete Frame. The selected frame disappears.
You should now have a two-frame window with an upper, empty frame and the lower main frame.
Right-click in the upper, empty frame and choose Frame Properties.
Type the filename from step 1 (or browse to it) into the Initial Page combo box. Click OK.
The upper, empty frame should now contain the content formerly seen in the left frame.
Adjust the borders between the frames by dragging or using Frame Properties.
What to Do to Save Manual Html Code Changes from Word
You made some changes to the HTML source in the Script Editor and saved it. You continued to work on the Web page in Word and saved the file. When you opened the Web page later, all your changes were gone. How can you keep your changes?
Word overwrites any changes you make because it regenerates the HTML source every time it opens the document. To avoid losing your changes, create them last. After saving your Web page in Word, do not open the page again in Word. If you must make further changes, use a text editor, such as Notepad, or an HTML editor application, such as FrontPage.
