Microsoft Expression Web is the replacement for Microsoft Front Page.
Here is a short tutorial on how to edit a website using Expression Web.
Click FILE > OPEN SITE
In the ‘Open Site’ dialog, type your web site address into the ‘Site name’ box, but prefix it with ‘ftp’ instead of the usual ‘http’
Click OK. Enter your FTP username and password, supplied by your web host.
The ‘Remote Web Site Editing Options’ dialog will open. Choose ‘Edit local copy now’. Click OK
The ‘Web Site Setup’ dialog will appear. Choose FTP and click Next.
In the next page of the wizard, choose a location to edit the site locally and click next
The wizard is now finished.
When Expression web opens, choose a web page from the remote site, and transfer it locally. In this example, we have chosen ‘index.htm’, the home page. In our example site, we also had to download the ‘images’ folder to properly preview the page locally. There is no harm in downloading the entire site, but larger sites may take some time.
In the left hand column, double click on the file name to open the file in the editor. Be sure that 'Split' mode is selected.
Make whatever edits you’d like, use the WYSIWYG view to preview your changes. You may make changes in either window, whatever is easier.
Right click on the file in the left column to preview the page in a browser. If editing was unsuccessful, delete the page and re-download it from the site.
After successfully editing the page, publish it back to the site. Your edited page is now live.
