I have developed several websites with publisher but as they get more
complicatd, I want to switch to Front Page. Can Front Page read the
"filtered html" files? or how can I publsh to the Web from Publisher with
UNFILTERED html? I realize that once this process starts I will not be able
to go back to publisher, but that's fine as I want to make the transition now.

If you have Pub 2003, you can do a Save As and generate "unfiltered" html,
but this has been removed from Pub 2007. Even so, I have not read of anyone
who has been happy with the results of importing Publisher code into
FrontPage...way too different. Just start over...sorry.

You can open a Publisher generated website with FP...whether a human can
actually work with Publisher's code is another matter.
You *can* go back to Publisher - just don't delete the orig pub file for the
web.

Bottom line is you will end up redoing your website no matter which web
designing tool you use due to Publisher's proprietary kinda code.
