Define a Behavior for an element

Behaviors in Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003 are scripting options that enable you to quickly add interactivity or increased functionality to text or other elements of your Web page.

A Behavior is a combination of an event and an action that you want to occur when a site visitor interacts with a Web page or an element of a page.

You can customize built-in FrontPage Behaviors by using a task pane (task pane: A window within an Office program that provides commonly used commands. Its location and small size allow you to use these commands while still working on your files.).

  1. In Page view, at the bottom of the document window, click Design Button image.
  2. On the Format menu, click Behaviors. The Behaviors task pane opens.
  3. On the page, select the page element — for example, text or a graphic — you want to work with.
  4. In the Behaviors task pane, click Insert, and then click the action you want.
  5. In the dialog box that appears, select the options you want, and then click OK.
  6. Under Events, point to the default event, and then click the arrow to choose the event you want.
  7. Depending on the action you choose, select any additional options that define the event for the action.
