From Front page on windows 98 to Publisher on Windows XP problems.

I am a pure novice who designed my website on frontpage on windows 98 and now have windows XP with publisher 2003. When I download my pages to edit in publisher from the Internet, they look funny and out of place. I am trying to figure out how my WSYWIG designs will work with this program. In addition, some of the HTML (paypal buttons) didn't get saved to my publisher files. Is there any reason for this?

What is the difference between publisher and frontpage?? Should I just use my old slow computer and frontpage? Or is it worth it to learn publisher and upgrade?

Thanks!

Install FrontPage on your new computer and uninstall from your old computer.

FrontPage 98 had the advantage of the "Image Composer" and the "Microsoft Gif
Animator". Newer versions don't have these nifty add-ins.
