difference between them??

A ball peen hammer and a framing hammer can both be used to drive nails.
However, if you're framing a house, using a framing hammer will be much
easier and faster. FrontPage is a tool set specifically designed for
building web sites and web pages. Use FrontPage.

Don't even consider Publisher to build web pages or even parts of web pages!
It is truly too bad that Publisher offers you a chance to Save As html ...
don't go there!

FrontPage to build a website

Publisher is for desktop publishing.
FrontPage is for web sites.

Microsoft Word will add up a column of numbers. Would you
consider that a good program to create spreadsheets? Of
course not!

Always. Always. Always use the right tool for the task.

frontpage. publish is not designed for web publishing - it is for print (i.e.
paper) medium.
frontpage is specifically designed for the web.

the difference is Frontpage is designed for making web pages. Publisher isn't.
