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