I am looking for hosts that support Frontpage 2003, i know godaddy doesn't but the only other that i know and trust charges about $45 extra on top of hosting to add frontpage extentions! Any recommendations based on personal experience will be gratefully received.

DreamHost don't charge extra for supporting FrontPage extensions, even with their $7.95/mo plan. Hope this helps. :)

Well, this is one reason I personally avoid front page, it limits your choice of hosts too much. If the only reason you are using front page is for the form support, I would dump front page and use one of the other offered solutions you got.

They (DreamHost) used NOT to support FrontPage AT ALL. They were actually founded by a bunch of designers and programmers, and you know what these people would think of FrontPage ... LOL! Anyway, I would also urge you to dump FrontPage altogether, not just for a cheaper hosting price. If it is just for a website like genericz.com, you can probably handle that in a short while.

Well I have another little project lined up but nothing to do with Genericz, although I suppose I could have a little practice with it first on Genericz, before designing my new project.

I have heard so many conflicting stories about the Frontpage series i think i may just go ahead with it anyway, and learn from my own experiences. In the end I could probably sell it on to someone else if I dont like it, and get something like dreamweaver???

yeah you should go for DreamWeaver, although I've heard that MS is planning to make a "competitive software" out of FrontPage in the near future....

I can't wait to see that;)

Go with DW instead. You won't regret it...consider it a GOOD learning experience.

There is a reason why FP is cheaper...it's garbage. You will just get DW eventually anyways.
