MS Frontpage 2003 fully supports CSS. I believe IE 6 does too. FP2k3 is finally on par with other web site management apps.

It's just that this behavior was goofy enough that I'd considered uninstalling and reinstalling until I figured out that it might be a pirated copy. Here's a completely different question: Do you have any feel for the level of acceptance of the Microsoft enhancements to Cascading Style Sheets? I haven't exactly been like a kid in a candy store, but they're fun to play with. For example, I've modified a web page header for a client's web site using two different MS Filters: http://www.bxwi.com/builders_exchange_of_wisconsin.htm http://www.bxwi.com/bxwiwithlights.htm These two examples use RandomDissolve and Light filters. Of course they only work with IE. Since my client's web site specifically requires IE, I didn't worry about cross-platform stuff when I worked up these samples for a new service (the logo was designed by Janet, by the way).
