FrontPage is popular software and unfortunately FP is still used by many webmasters.

Microsoft announced that there will be NO releases after FrontPage 2003 and adviced FP users to switch to MS Expression, and for that FrontPage Web Extension producers (RTR.com) stopped any new releases for their FP web Extension for Linux

So even if Microsoft abandoned their software, we still offer FP web extension to our users AND recommend them to switch to newer software.

FP web extension provide 2 major group of functions:

1. Publishing functions (With or without FTP).
2. WebBots, which is small web component that execute some interactive features of websites made with FP, like forms and counters

* For Publishing, You still can publish your website developed with FrontPage using the embedded FTP functions of FrontPage, please check this tutorial for more details:

* For WebBots, From examples we see with our customers’ websites, we do support all of them, however, our tech support efforts in webBots debugging will stop at trying to Re-Install FP extension in the hosting account.

That being said, if you have problem in running webbots, then we will try to reinstall the web-extension on the hosting account to fix the problem, but we do not have any resources to further help.
