MSFrontpage keeps added unwanted codes

Does anyone, here have that problem with MS Front page, when you open up an html document, it automaticly ads some things to it that you don't want. unnecessary codes? If so how can I fix this?

This isn't going to be the answer you want, but unfortunately it's the only answer there is.

The best you're ever going to get is to go in with a text editor (NotePad or WordPad, for example) and remove all but the following code:

<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">

Code (markup):

When you go back and use FP, it will see the Generator line and won't add the rest.

Alternatively, don't use FrontPage.

 

yes, better use a CMS or any wysiwyg editor for content, where you can control the backend as well as the frontend

 

My opinion :
Don't use MSFrontpage. Use Dreamweaver, golive or Notepad like "AWD1" said.

 

even better MS VisualStudio, its an editor on roids.

I do use frontpage for light development as I like the split view, allows you to see what your code changed to. I do however not use the visual editor to make content changes.

 

Notepad ++ isn't bad that way either. I'm still getting used to it, though. Just started using it on the weekend.

 

I'm using Editplus, works great.

 

If it is new pages you are talking about, check out Adding a DOCTYPE - this will help to explain how to change the new pages code.

 

Yeah thanks, I got it fixed, but after this, I think I will get dreamweaver

 

Keep in mind that any WYSIWYG editor will create some deprecated and bloated code unfortunately. I have used DW a few times in the past but never really got the hang of it - I have used some version of Frontpage for about 10 years now. And each new version gets a bit better.

I do still occasionally open up DW MX 2004 when a client calls up and is having problems (I like to try to help them a bit), but for some reason, it never really impressed me.

 

I swear by crimson editor and will never use a program like DW of frontpage again.

 

Jimco Software has a free addin called No FrontPage Meta which will at least eliminate some of the meta Trash FP generates.

 

I also use Microsoft Frontpage currently. And when I need help, www.timeforweb.com/frontpage (Frontpage Forums) has been really helpful.
