5.1 

Microsoft FrontPage (full name Microsoft Office FrontPage) is a discontinued WYSIWYG HTML editor and website administration tool from Microsoft for the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems. It was branded as part of the Microsoft Office suite from 1997 to 2003. Microsoft FrontPage has since been replaced by Microsoft Expression Web and SharePoint Designer, which were first released in December 2006 alongside Microsoft Office 2007, but these two products were also discontinued in favour of a web-based version of SharePoint Designer, as those three HTML editors were desktop applications.

Features

Some of the features in the last version of FrontPage include:
FrontPage 2003 consists of a Split View option to allow the user to code in Code View and preview in Design View without the hassle of switching from the Design and Code View tabs for each review.
Dynamic Web Templates (DWT) were included for the first time in FrontPage 2003 allowing users to create a single template that could be used across multiple pages and even the whole Web site.
Interactive Buttons give users a new easy way to create Web graphics for navigation and links, eliminating the need for a complicated image-editing package such as Adobe Photoshop which Microsoft does not sell.
The accessibility checker gives the user the ability to check if their code is standards-compliant and that their Web site is easily accessible for people with disabilities. An HTML optimizer is included to aid in optimizing code to make it legible and quicker to process.
Intellisense, which is a form of autocompletion, is a key feature in FrontPage 2003 that assists the user while typing in Code View. When working in Code View, Intellisense will suggest tags and/or properties for the code that the user is entering which was intended to significantly reduce the time to write code. The Quick Tag Editor shows the user the tag they are currently in when editing in Design View. This also includes the option to edit the specific tag/property from within the Tag Editor.
Code Snippets give users the advantage of creating snippets of their commonly used pieces of code allowing them to store it for easy access whenever it is next needed.
FrontPage 2003 includes support for programming in ASP.NET a server-side scripting language that adds interactivity to Web sites and Web pages.
FrontPage 2003 includes support for macros in VBA.

To insert a picture on the home page
  
FrontPage displays the Picture dialogue box. Because you are editing a page that isn’t part of a web yet, FrontPage also opens the select File dialogue box, which lets you choose a picture to insert from your local file system. The picture file you’ll insert is located in the Book folder that was installed with the FrontPage program files.  
If you downloaded the book files from the www.microsoft.com, navigate to the folder named Fptutor\Samples, or to the folder where you placed the files. In the Book folder, several files will be displayed. By default, FrontPage searches for picture files.
FrontPage inserts the selected picture file on the current page. It is a picture of a button that your site visitors will be able to click to learn more about FrontPage 2000.

To insert special characters or symbols

FrontPage displays the Symbol dialogue box. Here, you can select and insert special characters at the insertion point. You can insert multiple symbols while this dialogue box is displayed.
  
FrontPage inserts the trademark symbol after the letters MSN. You can use the Symbol command to insert characters that you may not able to type directly with your keyboard. Next, you will create an automatic hyperlink. This method of creating hyperlinks is quick and easy because it lets bypass the Create Hyperlink dialogue box.

Poem 1 - On His Blindness - by John Milton (Sem IV)

John Milton ’s poem “On His Blindness” is an autobiographical sonnet in which Milton meditates on his own loss of sight. For most of his life, Milton had been able to see perfectly, but his late-night reading and writing on behalf of the government of the short-lived English Republic, in which he held a very prominent position, helped ruin his eyesight. This sonnet—written in the “Petrarchan” rhyme scheme associated with the fourteenth-century Italian poet Francesco Petrarca—is divided into an eight-line “octave” and a six-line “sestet.” The octave rhymes  abba abba . The sestet rhymes  cde cde . The sonnet is, therefore, a typical Petrarchan sonnet in form, but in subject matter, the poem departs from the topics usually associated with Petrarchan poems. Petrarch (the English version of Petrarca’s name) was most famous for writing about love; Milton departs from that conventional topic to deal with a very practical, very physical problem, but a problem with many broa...
