Identify page created in Frontpage

[Bonnie]

Someone I know is taking a web design class and the
teacher tells the class that they have to use notepad or
something similar to code the pages in HTML. If they use
FrontPage, he says he will know about it and they will get
a failing grade. My friend asked me how he would know. I
know about the meta tags at the top, but the teacher said
they could take those out, and he would still know. What,
besides the meta tags, will identify the page as being
created in FrontPage? I would just like to know the answer
to satisfy my own curiosity.

Theme, webbots, shared borders, includes, all leave traces of the being created with FP in the HTML
when used in Normal / Design View.

However, if you work completely in HTML / Code view and manual write all of the code, it would like
using notepad, just better because of the color coding.

once he does his pages just (with windows explorer) copy them into a fresh
folder without the FrontPage vti_ stuff, then edit each with notepad to
remove the FrontPage meta tags from the head of the document and look
through for stuff that's obviously "frontpagey".
also www.jimcoaddins.com has an add-in called "no meta" or something like
this.
just removing the meta tags won't completely fool the teacher.

I have seen a really cool app from www.coffeecup.com called html editor that
is a pretty nice html editor he might want to try using on this project. in
plain text editors you can't go wrong with notetab from www.fookes.com

good luck beating the system ;-)

if she does it that way she would also have the advantage of flipping back and forth between Preview and HTML
