As long as you pretty much know html, FrontPage is fine.
I mostly use Dreamweaver, but I have several sites I've done for family and friends and I do them all with FP, because that's the only thing they know how to use. Luckily, I did start off coding by hand with NP years and years ago, before all the WYSIWYG editors came out.
Bottom line- learn html and css first and you can make most editors work.
I don't know if you'll have to "redo" them, but I would definitely look over everything and make sure it's all okay (especially your refcodes) no matter what editor you're using .
BTW, I never used FP extensions or uploaded with FP. I think it has ftp built in but I always uploaded with a different program (CuteFTP or WS_FTP)
A lot of people will give you crap about using FrontPage; mostly those who still hand code, but if you are looking for a good program to build pages and manage a site without the learning curve associated with Dreamweaver then FP is the way to go. I have been using it for years and it just keeps getting better and better.

Contradiction?????????

If you have an older version (FP 2000 or before) just use the editor part and play with the results a bit and you are fine. NEVER EVER EVER use the "front page extensions" on a server. A huge waste of time, effort, and most importantly, not compatible with all browsers.
Get a nice FTP program (cuteftp, example) and you can edit with anything you like... FP is the answer to a question few people in adult should ever ask.
