Is it possible to resave an existing webpage to a CSS? I have already
developed my website but now want to make the index/home page a CSS page and
have the other already created pages changed to look like it and then just
add the information for that particular page. Please advise. Thanks
 
Hi Michele,

No, it's not possible to do it the way you describe. CSS is a different
language with it's own parmeters, so you can't just open your page and
do "save as..." and save it as a css file.

If what you want is to make sure all the pages have the same background
color, font style/size, etc. then you would create a style sheet with
that info and link all the pages to that style sheet. A simple example
looks like this:

body {
background: blue;
color: white;
font-family: arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 12pt;
}

So, if you link all your pages to a style sheet with this style in it,
all your pages would have a blue background with white text that 12pt
arial.

However, you'll have to learn how to write a style sheet using CSS.
Basic CSS isn't terribly hard to learn. I'm not sure how you could
create a style sheet using Front Page's menu. You can go to Format -->
Style and create a style, but I'm not sure that creates a style sheet.
Maybe a FrontPage MVP can advise better.
