"The best Web site development program that I have ever seen for the price!"
I happened to be referred to a page on Runaware (http://www.runaware.com) where I could try out Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003. I was really impressed on my very first use, and bought and installed it at once on my 2003 server. The "Pros" section a
PROS: Enhanced SharePoint and working with Visual Studio; is best choice when it comes to most 2000/2003/2008 servers; Optimize HTML helps cleanup bad code; improved interface; humorous Office Assisstant
CONS: Some things require SharePoint and FromtPage extensions on the server and Internet Explorer with Office on the client; must be purchased separately

"Waste of time and money!"
Donâ??t use this program unless you donâ??t care about accessibility and open web standards and as I think of it, it makes a lot of web designers lousy in web design so stay away from Microsoft FrontPage if you read my other review you might...
PROS: None, So called easy
CONS: Very sloppy code and messy and odd and non-standards, false web designing, IE 5+ friendly, Big con altogether.

Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003
Microsoft FrontPage 2003 is a Web site design and management application that ships with some versions of the Microsoft Office 2003 suite and is also available as a stand-alone program. It's easy to work with FrontPage, thanks to its visual...
PROS: Microsoft FrontPage 2003 offers an easy-to-use WYSIWYG interface, tight integration with Office, a bountiful assortment of templates and fonts, and a helpful code editor.
CONS: Microsoft FrontPage 2003 lacks a manual, and some sites may not display properly in browsers other than Internet Explorer. ISPs must have FrontPage extensions to enable some features.

"Get Dreamweaver Instead"
Don't waste your money on FrontPage. Unlike the rest of Microsoft's software that is easy to use, this program is a mess. I designed business cards and letterhead on MS Publisher, have fooled around with graphics programs, am well versed in...
PROS: Pros?
CONS: A Mess

"Frontpage 2003 is a definite improvement"
I've owned every version of Frontpage since 2000 and several versions of Dreaweaver as well. And I can say Frontpage 2003 is a definite improvement. For one, Flash movies are now much more easily integrated into your web pages with Frontpage 2003....
PROS: More comprehensive; more features
CONS: Drawing/Art applications are still not worth using

Internet fashions now dictate that even personal websites should contain more formatting than simply underlining your name and adding clipart. Microsoft FrontPage 2003 is a program that helps you get started, even if you have no previous...
PROS: No knowledge of HTML needed; good photo album-creation tool.
CONS: Host server must support FrontPage extensions; the interface can be daunting for novices.

Long time Front Page user, still learning
Have used Front Page for many years on our web sites. It is relitively easy to use and can do a lot. It still requires much study and learning as you want to do more and add more complex and creative parts to your sites. It has many many features...

Microsoft's Frontpage 2003 is the latest version of its web-editing tool. A first glance clearly shows the influence of Macromedia's Dreamweaver, with the split view that shows code alongside your design, and code completion for tags, along with...
PROS: Good integration with Sharepoint services; support for remote XML data sources.
CONS: Confusing FTP support; poor support of PHP; too reliant on Microsoft web servers.

Know where you stand before you buy
I'm rating Frontpage as a whole, not in particular 2003. I've been designing websites for about 2-3 years now. I started with Frontpage because of its ease of use for inexperienced users. It has a good layout and the WYSIWYG is just like using...
PROS: Ease of use for beginners
CONS: Limiting functionality for advanced users
