Bugs

 

Maybe it's just my computer or my installation, but I ran into bugs right off the bat.

  1. The major annoyance is that FrontPage help gets an illegal operation when I select a help topic from the list:
    MSOHELP caused an invalid page fault in
    module KERNEL32.DLL at 0177:bff7a13d.
    Registers:
    EAX=00760020 CS=0177 EIP=bff7a13d EFLGS=00010216
    EBX=017d0088 SS=017f ESP=0064f9d0 EBP=0064fa04
    ECX=00001181 DS=017f ESI=01180008 FS=68af
    EDX=00650069 ES=017f EDI=00650080 GS=0000
    Bytes at CS:EIP:
    89 42 04 f6 44 24 21 02 8d 6b fc 74 2b 8d 86 0b 
    Stack dump:
    0064fa04 01180008 01080000 0064fbf2 bff7b30e 01080000 
    01180008 0000001c 00000200 00000000 0064fc0e 0064fbf2 
    01180008 0064fb4c 0c2ce1a7 01080000
  2. FrontPage 98 does not recognize the HTML code &m-dash; for an em-dash (—). You cannot insert it from the Insert | Symbol menu item. You have to code it as — or —. 2000 recognizes —, but once you enter either &-type code  and then switch to Normal view and back to HTML view, the coding disappears and is replaced by a normal dash. The official escape sequence for dashes seems to be &mdash and &ndash.
