There are also ways to create a similar scrolling effect by using a combination of HTML and JavaScript. Use your favorite search engine and use a key phrase such as “scrolling text.” You will find that there are many free JavaScript sites that not only give you the script, but also give you instructions on how to implement the script in your site.

It is worth noting that all standard hit counters, not just the FrontPage hit counters, are notoriously unreliable when it comes to getting accurate information about the number of visits to your site. The solutions below are more likely to provide you with more accurate information about traffic to your Web site.
Many hosting providers will provide some sort of server statistics tracking service. Contact your hosting provider to see if they have something that will allow you to keep track of page views and Web site use over time.
If your hosting provider doesn’t have anything that allows you to track statistics, there are many other third-party providers that allow you to insert a small amount of code on your pages that then allow you to track stats through their service. You can use your favorite search engine and use a key phrase such as “hit counter” or “site statistics.” Some examples include:
The Photo Gallery Web component, in addition to being dependent on FrontPage Server Extensions, also generated invalid markup, and it was difficult to customize the display beyond a few built-in layout options.
Instead of using the Photo Gallery Web component, you can create your own photo gallery by optimizing the photographs for the Web yourself and creating a custom layout in Expression Web. You can also download a trial version of the soon-to-be-released Expression Media and create your own photo gallery, or you can select from the other popular photo gallery services and solutions, including but not limited to:
If you have existing Include Pages, double-click the component to access the Include Page Properties dialog box. Since the FrontPage code is not dependent on FrontPage Server Extensions, you can also use the same code to create new include pages in Expression Web.
You can easily create an Include Page code snippet for easy reuse later on.
Instead of using the Page Banner component, simply type your page title directly into the page. For semantic markup, you will want to use the H1 element. You can then apply a style to the H1 element by using CSS. By defining a background image by using CSS, you can create a title that resembles a FrontPage page banner, but one that is more standards-compliant and completely customized!
In the following steps, you are going to create a new single page Web site, then create a new HTML page, copy and paste an image into the Web site, and then create a new CSS page. Note: You will be using this practice Web site throughout the rest of the examples in this paper.
