I would like to use different buttons than are available in Frontpage. Is
there a site I can download a button design from and will they work in
Frontpage once downloaded. Does Frontpage have a plug-in for extra buttons.
Is there a software package compatible with Frontpage that has different
web features in, i.e. buttons, drop downs or revolving text features?

Many thanks
 
If you mean interactive buttons (FP 2003 only), then you can make your own
to replace the ones that Frontpage offers in its wizards, and just
substitute your file names for Frontpages (manually, in Code View).

If you mean flash animated buttons (FP has no "internal" method of making
Flash buttons), then you have to do these in Macromedia Flash (this is a
"pro" product - IOW expensive!) or a product called "Swish" (cheaper
alternative).

There may be plugins and so on about to make buttons; but you're better off
making the buttons in something other than Frontpage as FP is not an image
editor.

The interactive buttons that FP makes are from images that already exist,
deep inside its program folders somewhere that are just customised through
the wizard to reflect your settings such as the label, the button
type/design and size etc.

If you mean animated gif/buttons then again, you would have to do these in
an aimation application like the one from ULead or similar (some of these
might be available as freeware/shareware/trials from tucows.com).
 
If you mean Interactive buttons
- yes you can make you own from any images
(made in an image editor or downloaded from any site that has free button images)
- then to use them see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;555010
