Purpose of the newsgroups

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the difference between this ng and
m.p.f.programming?

Thanks

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the difference between this ng and
m.p.f.programming?

microsoft.public.frontpage.client is mostly about designing Web pages.

microsoft.public.frontpage.programming is mostly about writing procedural
code within the context of FrontPage. This includes languages such as
JavaScript, VBScript in ASP pages, ASP.NET, and Visual Basic for
Applications.

Of course, hard-core issues related to JavaScript, VBScript, and other
languages belong in the newsgroups dedicated to those languages.

Jim,
What about the other one: Microsoft.Public.Frontpage.

That's an obsolete and unsupported (not on the MS servers) newsgroups closed years ago that many ISPs still "keep alive"

Hi Top,

Thanks, great site. I didn't know it existed. Very helpful. I wish
something like that existed for all newsgroups.
