MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / May 2005Help Weird Publisher Problem
Now this only seems to happen on MY computer. Running XP with SP2 and Publisher 2003 with SP1. Using IE 6.0 (sometimes netscape 8.0 beta) I create my files in publisher...then when I do a File->Web Page preview...Only the background and text shows up. So I upload the page to my server and the same thing happend (yes I upload the sub folder and files). Now...if I go to my husbands computer and view the uploaded page on the server site...the pictures are there on my published web site. This seems to be related to some setting in my IE browser, as if I open web pages I created and upload and view them in Netscape on MY computer everything looks fine. But not in IE. But if I look at any page in IE browser, from my computer that I created in 2003 or 2002 that has been uploaded they are missing all pictures etc. However from dh's computer or any of the other 7 in the house, they look fine. So we've narrowed it down to a "personal problem." Now mind you any site i go to on the web looks fine, it's just with the sites I've uploaded. Mind you I've had web site for over a year so I do know how to load them and (so I thought) create them. I'm only trying to load one page. Pictures are put inline text. I've read all the FAQs and know my drivers etc are fine as I can see anything else on the net just fine. And yes I delete cache and refresh on my system when I upload to server or do a Web Page preview. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Sticks. post the URL  SignatureDavid Bartosik [MSFT MVP] www.publishermvps.com > Now this only seems to happen on MY computer. > [quoted text clipped - 41 lines] > Any help would be appreciated. > Thanks Sticks. thanks David, for all you do! The URL is http://www.maryschanticleer.com The web site will probably look fine to you, with pictures and left hand nav bar. It just doesn't look like you see it on My computer. I have the subfolders with supporting files uploaded on server (I really do know how to upload pages so I'm not a newbie). Some pages I've not updated in a year or so, and they are now looking wiggy on my computer but not on other computers. I'm set to view encoding as Western European (windows) and tried UTF-8 (no change there). It's only on MY computer. Now mind you I've not tried to upload my files I created on my computer from one of our other computers, just viewed the uploaded pages from other computers. Another URL is http://schools.fcps.org/nmms/Newsletter/newsletter1.htm (which should show as a dual column school newsletter. It probably will to you, but it shows as one page one column text to me. I've noticed that if I create a new page with 2 column table and type in the info...this I can see fine on my computer when I upload to server, but again my pictures (exact or inline placement) don't show up on my computer (see http://schools.fcps.org/nmms/Newsletter/newsletter7.htm) , but do on others. Also "only on my computer" I can't seem to see multiple created text boxes. I appreciate your help very much. Sample of newsletter page that "I" see. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL And WELOME TO 2005! Some are trying to put 2004 behind them. . Some are glad 2005 is here. We have a new year to move forward with and do some great things: We can make changes in ourselves, our lives and our families and the world. Thank you to all the parents who have been behind the scenes supporting our kids. Whether you know it or not, you make a big difference at NMMS. Your smallest effort makes a difference to our kids. Your effort at home listening to your child makes a difference. New PTSA Editor Hiya, I'm Mary Frye! I'm the new editor of the NMMS PTSA newsletter. I just answered an e-mail and here I am. The former editor had other obligations, so I'm now filling in. Young Authors' Writing Contest: The Frederick County Reading Council and SoMIRAC are sponsoring a Young Authors' writing contest. This is a great opportunity for each grade level to showcase their poetry and/or short story writing. Students should contact their LA teacher for guidelines or pick up a guidelines sheet in the media center. January 7 is the deadline to submit entries to their LA teachers. The winners from New Market will automatically be entered into the county competition, and county winners are entered into the State competition. Last year, New Market had county winners at each grade level and their writing was published in the spring "Design an Ad" section of The Frederick News Post. Extended Hours in the Media Center: Starting January 11th 2005, the Media Center will have extended hours on the second Tuesday of each month. Each month will feature a different Theme. Our First evening will be a "coffee house" with real coffee and hot chocolate available for all who come. Also, there will be board games available for people to play. But most importantly, the media center will be open to the entire community, if you'd like to come in and help your children with their research or with book selections. The Media Specialist, Mar Jo Richmond, will be on hand to assist students and parents. Computers with a high-speed Internet connection are available for your use at that time too. The Media Center will close 7:30 pm.

Here is something Interesting I discovered. If i bring the page up on Netscape, version 8.0 beta browser...it comes up fine.... http://www.maryschanticleer.com In netscape, When I check t he Trust Setting for my site (the yellow security sheild icon)...it's set to "I'm not sure I trust this site" If I toggle to "I trust this site" (maximum security setting) I get the werid formatting like I get in IE 6.0. If I toggle the setting back to "I'm not susre I trust this site" or the third setting "I don't trust the site" the page comes up fine with graphics and links etc. So this is a clue I think... Thanks, Sticks (still scratching her head on this one) > Here is something Interesting I discovered. If i bring the page up on > Netscape, version 8.0 beta browser...it comes up fine.... > > http://www.maryschanticleer.com I just looked at the code for this site and found it's not 2003 code which I thought you'd stated earlier. It is version 2002 code. In fact it's 2002 original code, which means either you haven't updated to SP3 or you are purposely using it's rich html output, which is prone to big problems which is a reason why there are service packs. So you should update your Pub 2002 to service pack 3 and then resave and republish the web site using the File, Export as... option. Of course delete all site files off the web server and delete all browser caches prior so you do a fresh clean publish. David Bartosik - [MSFT MVP] http://www.publishermvps.com http://www.davidbartosik.com That's one of the problems...I don't have pub 2002 anymore that's when this started when I got loaded with 2003 (dh loads the stuff for me and he's pretty savvy, he builds computers too and fixes them hardware and software, but he's not familiar with publisher). Y es the original pages were done in Publisher 2002. Then my husband upgraded my computer a few weeks ago and loaded MSN OFFice 2003 (publisher with SP 1) (i don't have publisher 2002 on my machine anymore). That's when it started getting wiggy. He's upgraded the other computers in the house and all but mine, show the page just fine, just not on MY computer in IE 6.0. When I click About Publisher on our machines The version shown is... Microsoft Office Publisher 2003 (11.6255.6408) SP1. So I'm working in 2003 with SP1 (I thought SP1 that was the lasted upgrade for 2003). I honestly don't know if I had SP3 when I used 2002....so I'll trust you that I didn't have SP3 for 2002 on old machine. But you are right...when I click on view source at http://www.maryschanticleer.com it says generator is Microsoft 10. That's odd too as I've opend that old file (on my computer) from Pub 2003 Sp1 And saved it as a file type web page (a . htm), but when I upload to server they still come up as Publisher 10 on view source. There is no "Export Function" on the file menu in 2003 SP1. It views fine in netscape with the previously mentioned security settings but NOT in IE. So I opened Blank web page in Publisher 2003 created a new web page and started from scratch (when I saved it the "Save As Type" I select is "web page") The new page is http://www.maryschanticleer.com/mary.htm. Upload it to server and when I view source it does say it's generator is Microsoft Publisher 11. yes I delete cache etc or hit reload to view. as before it views fine in Netscape 8.0 with below (I'm sure security settings) but not in IE 6.0. Sigh. As my husband said it's a personal problem (he's a big help LOL). I've been a satelitte programmer and test engineer for 27 years...and I tell you I come up with the weirdest problems! (we test engineers tend to push buttons that they say don't do that!) I honestly think it's something personal to my computer settings as every other computer I view the site on it looks just fine. This is friend and family sites even at the library! I may be one of those you just can't help. But I sure appreicate any help you've given and feel free to cry uncle on me. Sigh..it's just a bunch of 0's and 1's. thanks again daivd, I really appreciate you trying to help! Hugs, Sticks > > Here is something Interesting I discovered.

[quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > http://www.publishermvps.com > http://www.davidbartosik.com Stop using the File, Save as... Period. Only use File, Publish as web. FYI: export as web = 2002 SP3 publish as web = 2003 SP1 David Bartosik - [MSFT MVP] http://www.publishermvps.com http://www.davidbartosik.com > That's one of the problems...I don't have pub 2002 anymore that's when > this [quoted text clipped - 85 lines] >> http://www.publishermvps.com >> http://www.davidbartosik.com Okay I did that...I created a new ...Blank web page. Put in background, one picture and 3 lines of text. Did "File->Publish to web" with file name mary1.htm so http://www.maryschanticleer.com/mary1.htm Uploaded it to my server and the mary1_files and It still does the same t hing. views fine in netscape with medium security setting. Doesn't view in IE 6.0 on my computer (just text no graphics) I go view it from other computers in house and in IE 6.0 it comes up just fine, as it has before So I think we've narrowed it down to something specific to my computer. A setting or something. I can sure pick the problems can't I, LOL. I have a feeling this problem, seemingly localized to my system only...is out of the scope of this forum. Unless you have any other ideas....I really thank you for the time you've spent and attempts to help me and all the FAQs etc that I've read and learned from. Signaturehugs, sticks > Stop using the File, Save as... > Period. [quoted text clipped - 97 lines] > >> http://www.publishermvps.com > >> http://www.davidbartosik.com Views fine to me. I guess go to the IE forum and post that your IE won't display that page. Just be sure you limit the post to only stating that your IE doesn't display the page. Don't mention Publisher. You do that and someone will just tell you to come here. David Bartosik - [MSFT MVP] www.publishermvps.com www.davidbartosik.com > Okay I did that...I created a new ...Blank web page. Put in background, > one [quoted text clipped - 136 lines] >> >> http://www.publishermvps.com >> >> http://www.davidbartosik.com well David...Guess what... I changed the right security setting..and bingo pages come up...I don't remember which one I changed (shoot was running late to PTA meeting, so didn't vew pages til I got home!) But it was definitely a security setting. If I get time I'll play with it to find out which setting it was. So it was educational for that. And I learned some good stuff about publisher 3. So thank you very much for all your help and patience. This was the only forum I found that had really really useful and technical information.
