FrontPage creates the HTML code

• While HTML is the language your sites will be
  based on, you don't have to know it to create a
  great Web site.
• FrontPage uses a graphical interface that allows
  anyone with Windows experience to develop Web
  pages.
• It creates the HTML code for you and the Web
  browser interprets it to display your pages
  correctly.

FrontPage builds Web sites

• A Web site consists of Web pages, files, and
  folders as well as specific FrontPage server
  extension support files that all work together so
  Internet users can view a site correctly.
• Web sites can be disk-based or server-based.
• Disk-based sites can be stored on floppy disks or
  on a hard drive
• Server-based sites have your files and folders
  stored on a Web server.
• These two types of sites are created in an almost
  identical way.

6
Tools

• FrontPage offers many other powerful and time
  saving tools, including
• Site management.
• Site publishing.
• Templates and wizards
• Collaboration tools.

7
Creating a Web Site

• When building a new Web site, you must first
  create a folder in which to store the files and
  folders in the site.

8
Use FrontPage Views

• Once you have opened FrontPage, the View menu
  allows you to use the Folders view, where you can
  see all the files in your Web site.
• The View menu allows you to see your site from
  different perspectives.
• The Folders list shows all the folders and files
  in the site.

9
Advantages

• As a Microsoft application, FrontPage is better
  at handling ASP pages, which are the standard
  when using Windows based hosting and windows
  based programming.
• FrontPage perfectly interacts with other MS
  Office applications as well
• The best thing is HTML pages created in FrontPage
  look exactly as they will appear in MS Internet
  Explorer. The bad thing is that they look perfect
  ONLY in Internet Explorer!
• Visual aids. FrontPage provides diagrams to help
  manage even the abstract aspects of your site,
  like hierarchy and site navigation.

Privacy of Webpages

• This step-by-step article describes how to create
  a simple password-protected Web page solution by
  using FrontPage 2003, Active Server Pages (ASP),
  and a Microsoft Access database.
• You must create several files to work with this
  sample. First, create a home page for your Web
  site, a "nonsecure" page and a password-protected
  page for testing, and then the logon Web page and
  the logon include file.

Understanding Hypertext Markup Language

• The name of an HTML tag is enclosed in angle
  brackets (ltgt).
• Most tags are two-sided.
• Opening tag tells the browser to start applying a
  feature.
• Closing tag tells the browser to stop applying a
  feature.
• One-sided tags require only an opening tag.
• The browser stops applying the formatting
  indicated by the one-sided tag when it finishes
  reading the tag/

Using Meta Tags

• A meta tag is an HTML tag that includes
  information about a Web page, such as the
  character set, name of its developer, how often
  the page is refreshed, and the keywords and
  description of the pages contents.
• The Custom tab of the Page Properties dialog box
  allows you to insert meta tags.
