Special Edition Using Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003

Make the FrontPage Specific HTML Go Away

I want to use FrontPage to strip every single piece of FrontPage-specific HTML from my site.

It is simply impossible to eliminate all FrontPage-specific HTML in your site if you use FrontPage Themes, Web components, included files, or navigational elements in your Web site. If you use these tools, FrontPage will create FrontPage-specific HTML that can't be edited from within FrontPage.

If you must completely eliminate all FrontPage-specific elements, you can publish an optimized site and then edit the optimized site content in another editor to eliminate these tags.

Using FrontPage with Site Build It

I want to use FrontPage 2003 to develop my Site Build It site (http://sitebuildit.frontpagelink.com). How can I create a site with FrontPage 2003 that I can use with Site Build It?

Site Build It can't support any FrontPage specific technologies. To develop a site for Site Build It, simply refrain from using the FrontPage-proprietary tools. This includes any of the Web components, Themes, navigational elements, or included file content.

Web sites such as FrontPage Tools (http://frontpagetools.frontpagelink.com) sell Site Build It specific FrontPage Templates.

The Report Is Wrong

I ran a browser compatibility report, and it said that a certain feature won't work in the browser I was testing. I checked the feature in the browser, and it worked. Is the browser compatibiliy checker not working correctly?

The Browser Compatibility tool checks against specific stated compatibility standards. Sometimes a browser might not support a specific tag or issue, but the end result might be the same.

At the end, the final test is really in the browser you are checking against.
