About views
In Microsoft FrontPage, there are several different ways for you to look at the content in your Web site to help you effectively design, publish, and manage it. You can work with your Web pages in any of the following views:
You can choose from four different types of Page views, depending on your specific needs and how you want to view and work with your pages.
- Design view You can design and edit Web pages in the default Page view, Design view. This view provides you with an approximated WYSIWIG authoring experience, as you create your Web pages using the design tools.
- Code view You can view, write, and edit the HTML tags yourself. With the optimized code features in FrontPage, you can create clean HTML, and it is easier for you to remove any code that you do not want.
- Split view You can review and edit Web page content in a split screen format that offers you simultaneous access to both the Code and Design views.
- Preview view You can approximate how the page will look in the Web browser without having to save your page. Use this view to check small changes that you are unsure whether you want to commit to.
You can use Remote Web site view to publish an entire Web site or to selectively publish individual files. You can also synchronize files between two or more locations
When you view folder contents in Remote Web site view, the files are marked with icons and descriptive text indicating the publish status, such as Don't Publish, Changed, Unchanged, New, and Conflict. You can filter the view to show the folder contents, files to publish, files not to publish, and files in conflict.
Navigation view provides you with a hierarchical view of your Web pages. This view enables you to arrange the pages in your site by clicking on a page and moving it to a new location in the site.
Tasks view displays all the tasks in your Web site in a column format and provides current information about each task under various headings.
