- Can I use FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) on RootsWeb
FreePages?
- No. FrontPage extensions such as counters, guest books, forms, etc.
will not work with freepages. You can create a website and upload to freepages

off server extensions in FP2000, click on the 'Tools' menu, then 'Page Options',
then the 'Compatibility'. Make sure that 'Enable with Microsoft FrontPage
Extensions' is not checked. This tip does not work with FP98.

in your browser. /dd>
