I am trying to publish my web site in expression web and the remote website properties dialog box is the same as frontpage. When I publish, what option should I use, Frontpage server extension (which I thought Expression web didn’t use), WebDAV, FTP, or file system. I built a site from scratch in expression web and when I try to ftp it, a message comes up that says that my site has components that need fpse. If I publish using the fpse option, I get an error saying that there are no server extension installed on the server but why do i need them. Sorry, I am so frustrated. I want to do without fpse because hosting company are starting to not support them.

you can in fact publish web pages with expression web. If you are used to FP you will see very little difference opening a web with expression. Its all done the same way.

Hi.
I’m sorry. I’m new to this. Does that mean Expression Web can’t be used to publish a web page?! Or are there no Server Extensions required with Expression Web? Or will FPSEs support publication of web content via Expression Web.
Sorry for the questions, but it sounds like my investment in Expression Web won’t actually yield a published site for me.
Thanks for sharing what you know.
Good day. Ed
