FrontPage is the web development application of the Microsoft Office
Suite. It allows you to create and edit your web pages and web site in
a graphical user interface, such as Word. You don't need to know how to
program using HTML to create a web site using FrontPage. However, at
times it will be helpful to be familiar with certain HTML
tags, such as <p> (paragraph), <br> (line
break), <b> (bold>, and the heading tags, such as
<h1> and <h2>. When you need
to, FrontPage allows you to go behind the scenes and examine
and edit the actual HTML code, if desired.
