Frontpage Express

[mike]

I am using windows XP and can not find Frontpage Express
anywhere. Is there a way that I can download it? I tried
downloading Internet Explorer 6 and it stated that I
already had that version. Thanks for your help.. Mike

It's not included in Windows XP. You may download it at

FrontPage Express is not included with IE or XP. You can
find it for download from several on-line sources. If you
have a previous Windows version CD, you can probably find
it. You formerly could find it for download on MS web site,
but don't know if it is still there.
Try a Google search [this is one link found there

What's the status of the FrontPage Express program then? Orphanware? I
was going to use it for some HTML editor compatibility testing, but it
looks like Microsoft has punted it completely.

Okay, I admit that I quit using it years ago, but it wasn't that bad.
I thought MS was maintaining it as an entry-level program, and that it
was actually off of the same code base as the full product (unlike
Outlook and Outlook Express)...

I think it was a "teaser" program to get people into making web pages
with a "freebie" tool. It's dead, or "orphaware" as you suggest.

I am not privy to Microsoft's strategy, but clearly they want FrontPage
Express users to move to FrontPage. So would I if I owned both products.

If you want a good HTML editor program, try the program that comes with
Mozilla browser (free). Pretty good. There are also lots of other free
HTML editors out there.
