FrontPage sucks.

September 22, 2002 5 | Comments (Closed)

Over at What do I Know? (very glad he’s back - btw) Todd Dominey is singing The FrontPage Blues.

He gives voice to some of the problems FrontPage can cause. But trust me, he’s just speaking about the tip of the iceberg.

I know the feeling. I know it way, way too well, and too often. I see FrontPage almost everyday, which is strange, as I thought I’d never see it used in a professional situation, and I really dread the times I’m forced to use it.

The really sad thing is that I don’t think it’ll be going away anytime soon. Oh well.

although you are right about frontpage,
you guys are absolute losers; WYSIWYG is for little kids

Windows Notepad is your only redeeming hope

FRONTPAGE sucks BIG TIME!!!!!

THEY should hang the people who wrote the routine which make frontpage scan your website and empty all your documents.

Thanks to these ASS*&^%$# I lost several days of work (lucky for me I made a backup).

This is not the first time this happens to me. Now I kicked Frontpage from my HDD and it will never be installed again.

I appologize for my foul language, but the above just happened 5 mins ago

FrontPage is abhorrent. WYSIWYG is for little kids (go PICO!), but I mean come on. Frontpage is beyond awful.

i disagree with you guys that wysiwyg is always bad. don’t get me wrong, i’ve done my fair share of notepad HTML editing, but i’ve found it to be too time consuming to be efficient. i’ve found that dreamweaver is the best program to keep one’s site organized, although it needs a little html tweaking here and there.
