This article was previously published under Q219574



SYMPTOMS
When you insert a file by clicking File on the Insert menu, some of the information from the inserted file is not retained. For example, information stored in the ... element-- such as cascading style sheet instructions or scripting code--may be removed when the file is inserted. You may see incorrect formatting or receive scripting errors when you view the page in preview mode or in a Web browser.

Note that this information is not removed from the original file; it is only removed from the information that is inserted into the current file.



CAUSE
This is a design implementation of FrontPage. Everything outside of ... is removed from the file when it is inserted.



RESOLUTION
To retain the complete contents of the original file, use the appropriate method for your situation.

Method 1: If You Don't Have a Web Open
Open the file by clicking Open on the File menu. If you only want some of the information from the original file, use a copy and paste operation after opening the file to move only the information you want.

Method 2: If You Have a Web Open
Import the file into your Web. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the File menu, click Import.
 * 2) Click Add File.
 * 3) Select the file and click Open.
 * 4) Click OK.
