SYMPTOMS

In FrontPage Editor, when you insert an HTML, JavaScript, or VB Script component, or add page elements, such as paragraph or line breaks, you do not see the format marks or placeholder icons that indicate you have inserted these elements on your page.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs when the Format Marks command on the View menu is not selected (not checked).

RESOLUTION

In FrontPage Editor, click Format Marks on the View menu. A check mark appears to the left of the Format Marks command to indicate that it is turned on.
