Design Better-looking Sites
FrontPage 2003 includes tools and layout and graphics features to help you work
faster and design professional Web sites.
- Work with graphics from other applications,
giving you more control over how images are displayed and saved.
- Use dynamic Web templates to modify entire sections of a
Web site. By updating the master template, changes are automatically
made to all pages linked
to
that template.
- Target specific browser or screen resolutions by using browser
and resolution reconciliation. See how your site will look in various
combinations of browsers
and resolutions.
- Create and manipulate tables used for layout purposes, and provide pixel-precise
control of your layout.
- Use manipulation tools to more easily work with multiple images and pieces of content that sit in the same space, and to create visual effects, such as pop-up menus.
Generate Code Faster and Easier
The design tools in Frontpage 2003 generate efficient and clean Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), and give you more control over the code. Or, you can apply your coding knowledge by taking advantage of the professional coding tools. With the scripting tools you can create an interactive experience for your audience. And, because the coding tools are easy to work with, you can even use them to start learning HTML.
Coding Tools
- Use a split view to see modifications made
in the Design View automatically updated in the Code View.
- Select, modify, and manipulate tags easily using the Quick Tag Selector
and Quick Tag Editor.
- Simplify code writing and make it less prone
to errors with Microsoft IntelliSense technology.
The technology is available for HTML, cascading style sheets, XSLT, Microsoft
JScript, and Microsoft ASP.NET.
- Remove extraneous code generated by Microsoft Word or other Web authoring programs.
Scripting Tools
- Enhance interactivity on your site without
writing a line of code by using behaviors to author JScript.
- Take advantage of support for IntelliSense and scripting tools for authoring JScript and Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript).
Extend the Power and Reach of Your Web Site
With Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services and Windows Server 2003 connected
to Microsoft FrontPage 2003, you can modify and present
live data from a range of sources, including XML, to build rich interactive
data-driven
Web sites in a WYSIWYG
editor. Users can post to the Web using just their browsers, while choosing
from a broad range of publishing options.
Data-driven Web Sites Enabled by Windows SharePoint Services
- Allow users to post to your Web site using just their browsers.
Web logs, issue-tracking lists, and news and reviews sites can be built with
just
a couple of clicks.
- Insert data views and configure data sources—including
XML varieties, Windows SharePoin Services data, Web services, and OLE Database
(OLEDB) data sources.
- Handle XML data and authoring and XSLT formatting directly in the FrontPage
WYSIWYG Design View to create XML data-driven Web sites.
- Show or hide items or reformats based on data values or position in the
data view by using Dynamic conditional formatting.
- Build Web Parts Pages by creating Web Parts Zones and inserting and connecting to Web Parts in other products, including Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, Windows SharePoint Services, and FrontPage 2003.
Frontpage 2003 Publishing Technologies
- Move files easily between local and remote locations and publish in
both directions.
- Connect to remote sites easily with the Web import dialog, which simplifies
connection types, and working with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
- Publish to File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) servers from the new Remote Web Site tab.
