How to Create a Web Site
Click FILE - NEW - WEBThe NEW Web dialogue box will appear.Choose a Web Site template from the list.Specify where the web will be saved.
This will automatically default to your MY WEBS folder on N Drive, but you can write in another path if you like.Click OK
A web will then be created. It will contain •The name and location of the web
•Two folders called “Images” and “_Private”
•And an empty page, called Index.htm, for you to work on.
This file is called Index.htm and is the home page of the web you have just created. Frontpage will automatically seek out this page when it opens the site in a browser, so it is best not to change its name. Just remember, it will be the first page your viewers will see.

How to create a web page
Now you have a web, you’ll want to put some pages into it.
Remember that when the web was created, a page, called “Default.htm” was also created. This is your web’s homepage and you can start to work on this page immediately if you like.
However, we’ll create another page to put into the web to show you how easy it is to create a new page.
You follow a similar process to that which you used to create a web.
Click FILE – NEW - PAGE
Choose the kind of page you want from the dialogue box which appears. Then click OK
A new page will load automatically into the Work Area.
It will be called “new_page_1.htm”.
