Microsoft FrontPage

Microsoft FrontPage is available on all workstations in VIU campus labs and on workstations in the Library and Malaspina Commons (except the Internet Access Stations.)

Microsoft FrontPage is a HTML editor and web site administration tool used to create and build websites. It is known as a "what you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG) editor, and is designed to hide the details of pages' HTML code from the user, making it possible for non-experts to easily create Web pages and sites.

Web folders for Discovery Accounts . A web folder allows students to make HTML files (i.e. web pages), and other web-based media content, available on the World Wide Web. If you do not have a web folder in your Discovery account, you can create one. If your web directory is not working properly, you can remove it and re-create it.
