That must mean your daughter must have used some Microsoft-specific server features that only IE can support, like ActiveX stuff. You don't
have to do that if you use FrontPage, you can also use it to make basic websites that work on any server (with or without the FrontPage Extensions) and any browser.
I don't do that any more, though - these days I'm more inclined to look for a LAMP* setup, and install a "Content Management System" like Drupal or Wordpress. Who needs to re-invent the wheel?
