Re: The future of FrontPage Server Extensions



Expression Web is designed not need or use the FP extensions, however if you open a site that is
using the extensions, then it will work with them and you can manage, but not add content that
currently uses the extensions.

SPD is designed to work with SharePoint on a Windows 2003 and later version servers.

So am I to understand that the sharepoint developer and the expression will
work on the same server? We have Fp Extentions version 2002 which of course
is the latest. what is necessary for ongoing support of Expression and SPD on
the server? Just .net 2.0 or now 3.0? and do you have to tell the individual
website to use .net instead of frontpage extentions? Can you refer me to some
documentation on how to setup the server? We have over 400 websites using fp
extentions. I have not been able to find much documentation on the backend
server side of this conversation.

-Thanks so much,

You can also use FTP if you choose not to use the FPSE.
