Re: [cobalt-developers] FrontPage and Database problems



Nope, I get a phone call from the client, saying that the Database
components are not working in FrontPage. (Should be Insert menu, and
Database) but the Database portion is greyed out.
So I hop on a PC that I have here, and verify.  Connect to local web
server... Insert - Database components show up.

AFAIK, the database functions in the FrontPage Extensions that are needed are not included with Unix/Linux versions of the extensions.

I think your only choices are:
1. Tell him to find another provider who has Windows boxes.
2. Tell him Frontpages stinks as an authoring tool and to upgrade/switch to Dreamweaver UltraDev if he want to do design and databases. (my $0.02)
