Which FrontPage components does Yahoo! support?

Yahoo! supports server extensions for FrontPage 2002 only (these extensions are compatible with FrontPage 2000). You may use FrontPage 2003 with your Web Hosting account; however, you will be able to access only those features compatible with FrontPage 2002.

Yahoo! does not fully support FrontPage 2003, and does not support any later versions of FrontPage.

We understand that some of our customers would like to use the latest versions of FrontPage to create and publish their sites. Unfortunately, complex structural changes introduced by Microsoft after FrontPage 2002 make the latest versions of FrontPage incompatible with the Yahoo! Web Hosting system.

The following FrontPage 2002 components will work with your web site:

  • substitution
  • hit counter
  • marquee
  • hover button
  • include page
  • scheduled picture
  • table of content
  • time stamp
  • theme

Please note that Yahoo! does not support the search form extension.

If you are having trouble using other FrontPage 2002 components, you may want to try one of the free Yahoo! add-ons included in your hosting account, such as forms, guestbooks, and counters.

If you try to work on your site using a version of FrontPage other than 2000 or 2002, please be aware that you may encounter problems activating and using FrontPage: Extensions will not install properly, and you will encounter errors and other problems when publishing. We recommend that you either purchase an earlier version of FrontPage or try another full-featured site building tool, such as Yahoo! SiteBuilder.

For detailed FrontPage support and troubleshooting, please contact Microsoft directly, as issues you encounter may be related to known bugs in the software. For further assistance, search the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
