Expression Web is not just a upgrade of FrontPage. It requires an
.NET Framework. If you're going down that path I would suggest
e.g. Delphi for PHP (

You don't have to go to a computer swap to get a cheap HTML editor
with a FTP that is easy to use. For $89 you can buy several:

On windows you can use e.g. Notepad++ and Filezilla for free.
Kompozer also has an easy to use FTP.
On linux I would go for Quanta Plus. With php-includes it
works, for me, as well as Dreamweaver.
I wouldn't dream of using most of the features. But for
simple changes like entering paragraphs, it's easier in
an non-html mode.
