Best webpage ever.
nice.
code comments were honestly the best and i hate how nobody does this anymore in the era of generators.
frontpage used to be unironically good.
I don't think I can agree with that, and I'm a pretty agreeable chap.
In the days when people actually cared about the html layout and readability, FP spammed everything hugely, and inserted a lot of terrible cruft. Inventing zillions of new <style> tags for everything, even when the user just wanted to italicise a word. Use a <i> tag? No! We'll invent a whole new style class and embed it in the headers.
A few years ago I rather stupidly agreed to take over hosting of a website for someone that was dying. It had been written with FP and it took me months to de-cruft it using a lot of regexp and scrifting. (Some 8,000 images and around 2000 .html files).
frontpage could be used as an IDE, rather than just a WYSIWYG editor. it was decent at that IMO. and that was probably 15 years ago at least.
I remember that Publisher could make web pages too. How? Since it was supposed to be WYSIWYG it exported the entire thing as a single image and used an html image map for the links.

That has unironicaly made me nostalgic for the days when the web was a place of experimentation, joy and just a bit of crazy.
We have lost our way
wow i miss this era so much, bring back the rotating and blinking gifs, marquees and quaint color palettes!
If you want to see more sites like this, check out neocities.

unironically that era of the web was best.
also netscape composer > frontpage :3
This is such a joy to behold
Ah! The glory days!
. . . i love this
I remember dreamweaver having plugins to remove frontpage bloated html
now we have ckeditor plugins to remove word bloat
