Designing FrontPage Webs to work with WebTV

With the gradual convergence of TVs and computers, hundreds of thousands of people have signed on with WebTV, a service that offers Web access through the television. Unfortunately, WebTV's browser is not quite up to the standards of the version 4 browsers. It doesn't support Web technologies like frames and Java applets, for example, and the nature of the TV screen itself limits the size of displayed Web pages. If your site is likely to be visited by WebTV users, you should visit developer.webtv.com. This comprehensive developer site will greatly aid your efforts to make your sites WebTV-compatible. There's even a WebTV viewer you can download that simulates the WebTV interface.
