Distorted Gallery Images
Generally gallery pages in Allwebco templates do not include height and width numbers. Some editors such as Frontpage and Dreamweaver may add height and width numbers and this may distort some images in your HTML pages if you have mixed image sizes (landscape and portrait) on a page. Here are some suggestions for solving these problems.
Best Solution #1:
The best solution in gallery pages is to have all images in each gallery the same exact size and orientation. If you need to, in your editor right click the main gallery image and set the height and width numbers.
Solution #2: Frontpage Hide Code:
There are notes you can add in Notepad or any plain text editor or in Frontpage source view. Find the following code in any of the gallery?.htm pages:
<!-- THE NEXT LINE IS THE STARTING SLIDE -->
<img src="gallery/Fgallery1-1.jpg" name="show" class="borders" alt="image"><br>
Remove the height and width numbers if there are any, then change this to the following code adding two lines:
<!-- THE NEXT LINE IS THE STARTING SLIDE -->
<!--webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan -->
<img src="gallery/Fgallery1-1.jpg" name="show" class="borders" alt="image"><br>
<!--webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan -->

Solution #3: Edit and FTP upload:
Open the problem "gallery?.htm" in Notepad or a plain text editor and do a search for name="show". This line of image code should not have any height or width numbers included. If this code is present, remove the "height=" and "width=" code. You must now upload using FTP software, otherwise Frontpage (and some other editors) will add these sizes back in.
Solution #4: Edit in your Hosting Control Panel
After you have uploaded or published your template: You can edit the sizes out in your control panel. If you have Allwebco hosting, Login to your control panel at "http://your-domain.com/cgi-bin/plusmail", go to "Site Manager". Select the gallery?.htm pages with the radio button on the right, then choose the "edit" button at the bottom. Find code similar to what is shown in "Solution #2" above and edit any "height" and any "width" numbers out. If you do not have Allwebco hosting, see if you have an on-line text editor built into your control panel.
Fixing this with Frontpage Software:
Frontpage has a glitch that adds sizes to any image that does not have sizes defined. This solution was sent in by one of our Frontpage users: Choose "Insert" on the main toolbar, then choose "Web Component", "Advanced Controls", "HTML". This allows you to insert HTML code that FrontPage will ignore. It encloses the code as follows:
<!--webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan -->
INSERTED CODE TO IGNORE HERE
<!--webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan -->
