Is there a Microsoft "Front Page" for Windows 7?

It's a web page designer. The one I used for XP was the 2003
version.

Are you saying that Front Page doesn't work under Windows 7?

Anyway, a few minutes on Microsoft's site will answer your question.

It's long dead and buried; FP2003 was the last version. In the Microsoft
world it's been replaced with "Expressions Web".

I would not recommend using it today; there is no support from Microsoft for
any of the likely security vulnerabilities that probably exist in it, and my
*speculation* is that it might have compatibility problems in a Windows 7
environment.

I can't offer any recommendation for or against Exprssions Web since I've
never used it: what little page development I do is either hand-coded or
done in Dreamweaver, but most of my Web page work is done by handing the
task off to my specialist and/or our graphic arts department.

Yes. It is now called Expression Web. See this link:

<http://www.microsoft.com/expression/products/web_overview.aspx>

If you want a free upgrade to FP2003 then try Microsoft Office
sharepoint Designer 2007

<http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=21581>

SP2007 is almost identical to Expression Web.

Hope this helps.

I couldn't load it because the iso disk was on my old XP system, and
this was lost ages ago due to a crash,
Who would have thought that "ExpressionsWeb" had anything to do with
web design? I didn't see it on the old FrontPage site.

Thanks, I'll cheque this out. I used to be able to change static
data on my web page (like phone numbers) with the FTP thing, but now
it seems one needs a web designer.

If your site is simple HTML/CSS then you can use Kompozer or SeaMonkey's
composer (both free of charge)

1) Kompozer <http://kompozer.net/>
2) SeaMonkey <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/>

If you want a complete tutorial for Kompozer then try this link:

It's actually a web authoring tool - has precious little to do with
effective design.
