FrontPage2002 Tutorial FrontPage2002 What is FrontPage2002? FrontPage2002 is a Microsoft Office program that allows virtually anyone with any computer experience to create professional-looking web pages or web sites. Even if you're creating your first web site, you'll find FrontPage a great helper with the larger aspects of web design and maintenance. Are there other programs like FrontPage? Yes. Macromedia has developed an entire line of web creation tools collectively known as Macromedia Studio MX (that's the latest version). Studio MX includes such famous titles as Dreamweaver and Flash. The professional version (by which I mean not the educational version) includes the ColdFusion MX server. The program Dreamweaver, though, most resembles FrontPage because of its visual web site creation functions (i.e. no programming knowledge is required). I know some HTML. Can I use my knowledge of the language in FrontPage? Of course! One of the best features about FrontPage is its flexibility. If you know some HTML or are an advanced programmer, then you will find FrontPage very useful. You can even utilize your knowledge (if any) of XML in FrontPage. What will I learn from this tutorial? Hopefully you will learn how to construct a web site...at least at the most basic levels. If you are really interested in web design and creation the best thing to do would be to always experiment with the different options presented by FrontPage. There are many more tools available than the ones presented in this tutorial. I have no idea what I'm doing! Calm down. If you have any other questions e-mail me at [email protected]. Keep in mind that I'm very busy...especially during the school year so I may not get back to you immediately. Also, I'm not an advanced web designer so I may not be able to answer harder questions such as "How do you link a form to a MySQL database?" I have no idea! The best thing to do, other than ask someone who knows how to link a form to a MySQL database, would be to experiment with the different options. |
