FrontPage & Expression Web No new FrontPage sites as of Oct. 1, 2009 Microsoft discontinued FrontPage in 2006 Existing FrontPage sites on our servers have been grandfathered Expression Web is available as an alternative Subscribers must use FTP to publish Microsoft stopped making new versions of the FP server extensions in 2002 and completely discontinued support for FP in 2006 We will continue to verify credentials; if extensions need to be reset, it will require a ticket in the CCC – we have all FP sites on one server. Subscribers may still build their site using FP, but they must publish using FTP, however many of the tools included with the server extensions are therefore not useable Pricing ranges from $66 for the basic version to $150 for Version 3 from the Microsoft site
