SYMPTOMS
In FrontPage Editor, when you insert more than one  tag in the HTML source, some of the attributes do not take effect when you open the page in a Web browser.



CAUSE
Although some browsers support this functionality, FrontPage Editor can use only one  tag at a time. When FrontPage Editor encounters a second  tag, it replaces the information used in the previous  tag with the information in the subsequent  tag.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, use either of the following methods:


 * Specify all of the attributes you want to use by using a single  tag.

-or-


 * Specify changes to the page elements--such as color, font, background, sounds, and so on--by clicking Page Properties on the File menu.
