PHP and FrontPage 2003

php frontpage 2003

[matthewamzn]

Is anyone using FrontPage 2003 with there php applications. I just got FrontPage and am dissapointed in how it handles php pages. Does anyone have any tips?

I use FrontPage just for designing roughly html, then I correct it in editor that highlights grammar. Php I write in pure text editor that highlights grammar and to say the truth I use MidnightCommander just because it is the fastest way of browsing through files :)

When I'm in the file I just press F2 to save, then ESC ESC then browse then F4 to enter:) And I can copy, rename etc... Moreover it remembers the exit position, so when reenter the file I get where I left.

Have a good time writing php!

Configure PHP file extensions to open in Design view:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Configure Editors tab.
2. In the Extensions list, locate and select the file extension that you want to use.
3. In the Editors list, select FrontPage (Open as HTML).
4. Click Make Default.

If the extension that you want does not appear, you must add it.

How?

1. Click the New Extension button (or press ALT+N), located above the Extensions list.
2. In the Open With dialog box, type the file extension that you want in the Extension box.
3. Select FrontPage (Open as HTML), and then click OK.

From that page on the microsoft site:

If you are using PHP with FrontPage and find that it prevents you from accomplishing what you want in your Web site, you might consider using ASP.NET instead.
