I used Front Page to create the "Pictures From our Past" site below. There was no major problems except as I understand it Rootsweb does not support "Front Page Extensions" Apparently this means you cannot up-load your files to Roots web with Front Page. You must use a conventional FTP program. I use WS_FTP Pro. Initially I downloaded the free WS_Ftpversion, but liked it and later upgraded to the commercial pro version. I used Front Page Express to create the home page at the Texasnet site. I am in the process of revising this with Front Page.

Front Page Extensions are Windows based codes for things like Counters, Guestbooks, etc. The RootsWeb Unix based servers do not support these Extensions. RootsWeb does offer it's own Counters and Guestbooks. You can upload to RootsWeb using the FrontPage Wizard. Instructions are here: http://freepages.rootsweb.com/frontpage.html Replace the destination ftp with the address for your type of account; i.e. users.rootsweb.com/public_html -- Pat Asher Ambrose Genealogy http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~pasher/ Help for Beginning Web Authors http://freepages.computers.rootsweb.com/~pasher/ > > I used Front Page Express to create the home page at the Texasnet site.
