Using Publisher in Office 2003 to build my site.  I have to publish the site
to a local folder, then upload the pages to my webserver.  When I go to my
server to "view" the pages, the page that I designated as my index.html is
the only one that has the www.mywebsite.com/index.html name in the address
bar at the bottom of my browser.  All of the other pages in the folder made
by Publisher don't. When I point to the navigation bar on my Home page, the
names of the other pages show as "AboutUs.html", and not the
"www.mywebsite.com/AboutUs.html" that I'm looking for.

I can preview the pages individually, but none of the links work.  I get the
error "The requested page could not be found.".  What am I doing wrong.  All
of my pages are saved as html, as are other non Publisher pages are in the
server that are hosting sites.  This is my first attempt at using Publisher
for web building.

My server supports FrontPage 2002 server extensions... please don't tell me
this won't help me with Publisher.

As mentioned on the FAQ page -
http://www.publishermvps.com/WebDesign/FAQ/tabid/30/Default.aspx - and also
in http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=102 - you only need FPSE
if you have a form in the web or if you otherwise desire HTTP publishing.

As covered on the FAQ page -
http://www.publishermvps.com/WebDesign/FAQ/tabid/30/Default.aspx - it is
common for newbies to upload the site incorrectly resulting in such issues as
the links failing.
Use the uploading articles available at
http://www.publishermvps.com/WebDesign/Version2003/tabid/33/Default.aspx in
order to properly publish the site.

Ok... fair enough... thanks a ton for the help.  Only, one question.  I have
opted to not  publish the site with the sub-folder.  Now how do you go about
uploading the entire sub-folder? Doesn't each file you have to publish using
the sub-folder have to be uploaded anyway?  What am I missing?

Does publishing my site in this fashion eliminate me from using forms on the
site?  Do I have to create the FORMDATA.HTML file?

Not sure what file you are referring too. To use a form you must publish in
http. My article on http publishing covers it.
