Shared borders replaces the "header and footer" functions in previous versions of FrontPage, allowing you to "share" the top, bottom and/or sides of any page with another page. This is useful for navigational bars, menus, logos and for Web pages that don't use frames. These instructions are intended for Microsoft FrontPage 2000.
