Importing XML files to FrameMaker 12

We have some HTML files that we are trying to import to FrameMaker 12 so we can edit them. I set FrameMaker as structured FrameMaker and opened the HTML file. I get an Unknown File Type and select Convert from XML. The file opens in FrameMaker, but all the images are missing. Is there a way to import html files and keep all the images?

    chrisj18814471,

    FrameMaker really is not an HTML editor. Structured FrameMaker includes a structured app to import/export XHTML, but it is not terribly robust and I would not recommend it. You could build some kind of structured app to edit your files, but I would suggest that this approach is not economical. I think you should just use some kind of editor that natively works with HTML, not FrameMaker.
