(Click on above to visit another Web site hosted at HyperMart)

If a web is server-based and the server is using the Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions, you can extend the functionality of the web by adding page elements such as hit counters, search forms, and confirmation fields. To ensure compatibility with servers that don't use the FrontPage Server Extensions, you can enable or disable commands that rely on the presence of the server extensions on the server. If you disable the server extensions for a web, the related commands will be unavailable (that is, they will appear dimmed) on menus in FrontPage at authoring time.

  1. On the Tools menu, point to Page Options, and then click the Compatibility tab.
  2. If you want to target your web for a server that uses the FrontPage Server Extensions, select the Enabled with Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions check box.

    Note   If your server doesn't use the FrontPage Server Extensions and you clear this check box, the following commands will be unavailable:

    Hit Counter (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Confirmation Field (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Include Page (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Scheduled Include Page (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Categories (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Search Form (Insert menu, Component submenu)
    Additional Components (Insert menu, Component submenu)
