FrontPage
This popular web site creation software takes a lot of the strain
out of web publishing.
Choose your theme, create a web, publish. It is that simple! It will
take you a little while to get used to but if you have used Microsoft
Office products such as Word, then you will quickly find your way around.
Although the new version of FP, FrontPage 2003, is available, there
are many web hosts who are not yet able to host the special extensions
required to use all of the features so if you decide to buy FrontPage,
make certain your chosen web host is able to accommodate the version
you are planning to use.
FrontPage
Extensions
FrontPage extensions are what is known as server-side includes
(SSI). This means that some of the operations are performed on another
computer or on another part of the server at the same time as the main
operations.
If you are using FrontPage, ensure that your hosting package includes
FrontPage extensions and also that the extensions are compatible with
the version of FrontPage you are using.
Server
Side Scripts or Server Side Includes (SSI)
Other examples of server-side scripts are; CGI, ASP, PHP, MySQL. Many
web hosts require additional payment for server-side scripts, including
those of FrontPage.If you are planning on learning to code, or want
to use some special features or create dynamically generated pages you
may want to think about including server-side includes (SSI) in the
planning and costing for your website.
