My Website's been a long time coming !




Although I've been playing around with my Frontpage programme for a couple of years and creating webpages (as home practice really) for me, my round Table and Area Table, It's taken until now to commit to hosting a domain name and starting in earnest to put up a web page.

My domain company was chosen around 3 years ago because they did all the plug-ins for Frontpage, however they were recently taken over by another company, and lo-and-behold, they don't support Frontpage because it's such an "ancient" programme.

You'll probably have gathered I'm not a programmer or Webbie, hence selecting Frontpage as my Idiot-proof way of creating reasonable looking pages with some functionality........well that's what I thought.....

I realise that Frontpage came along with a lot of "programming baggage" and is no longer available to purchase, but I must admit that I got to like it's simple interface, so now my choice is to go to another host who does support FP, or take the plunge and invest in Dreamweaver and start all over again.......or do I?......

I remember playing around with the web page templates in Word a long time ago, and so I've created some very simple pages to test out my hosting service, although I strongly suspect as it's Microsoft Word, the functionality will probably by Frontpage based.

I'll be attempting to load my pages this weekend at http://www.mark-roberts.biz/, and am hoping it will work, but I'm sure you guys and gals out there with even a hint of website building experience are splitting your sides at my newbie attempt to be seen on't web.

It's all good fun - I'll let you know how I get on.......
