Re: Frontpage 2003 no longer supported?

Shared borders do not require FrontPage extensions, unless you use custom background colours for the border regions or custom link bars for navigation within the borders. However, you will have to edit your sites on your own PC - you would have to do that anyway if the extensions are removed from the server, and you continue with FrontPage.

Expression Web will support shared borders in *existing* pages, but will not support editing FrontPage link bars or Navigation View.

Note that shared borders were deprecated in FrontPage 2003, replaced by Dynamic Web Templates which are fully supported in Expression Web.

I'm frantically searching these discussion groups for some practical
answers/advice. I have my own web site and 5 client sites, some with 100+
pages. No one mentioned this but I found out that "shared borders" is one of
the FP components that will NOT work without extensions. ALL my websites,
every page, are set up with shared borders!!! I can't possibly re-do every
page in one week and it's ridiculous to have to re-do every page in a site
every time you add a link button or update a logo!

Does anyone have any answer to this dilemna??? Does anyone know for sure if
Expression Web can convert FP webs with borders and make it basically
function the same? HELP!
