Further Information
Overview
FrontPage server extensions are CGI programs that provide Enterprise Server
support for FrontPage webs. Client-server communication takes place through
standard HTTP POST requests that are forwarded to the appropriate extension's
CGI program. If you use FrontPage webs, the extensions provide support for
FrontPage authoring and publishing, access permission, and WebBot functions.
For example:
•
When a user moves a page between folders in a FrontPage web, the extensions
automatically update all links to that page from every other page in the web.
•
You can specify which users have permission to administer, author or browse a
FrontPage web.
