My son uses it extensively for several local emergency service organizations 
that he maintains web sites for.  I have avoided it like the plague.  Before 
I knew for sure I ran into a number of web pages that would not display 
correctly or at all with Netscape or Firefox.  If I brought the up in 
Internet Explorer they worked just fine.  Front Page makes use of 
"extensions" that creates, in my view, broken HTML code.

A local ham, KB3HPC, teaches a graduate level multi media class at Duquesne 
University here in Pittsburgh and when he gets to creating web pages he tells 
his students up front that anyone one that turns in an assignment created 
with Front Page fails.  He prefers Dream Weaver and I plan to try learning 
that program.  So far I have done all my my web pages with Mozilla Composer 
or just a text editor.  Because Front Page is so popular though you could 
probably find several books on the subject at the local library.  Good luck 
with it if you go that route.
