Yes, but that's beside the point. I do use CSS. The above code was created for
the sole purpose of serving as an artificial example in my post. Placing the
properties into CSS makes no difference.

My current knowledge of the above standards is more than sufficient for my
purposes, except for the issue in question.
FrontPage can be used as text editor with HTML highlighting, which is pretty
much how I use it now. There's no need to switch to any other editor.

I'm perfectly happy with FrontPage's upload functionality, although I currently
use its HTTP upload, not FTP. It works perfectly fine, meaning the there's no
need to switch.
