MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / January 2006Burning Publsiher website to CDR
I am wanting to burn my website to make an interactive CD-ROM. I previously tried htis and it worked fine on my computer but not on computers without publisher. I published the document as a website to a folder and put both the sub folder and the icon on the disc. The result was not all the pages working if publisher wasnt present. The goal was to use it as a marketing tool and replace boring business cards etc... Any help is appreciated. Thanks Kyle Cook Make a folder on your pc and call it Publish. Publish the web publication to that folder. Visit my article at http://www.davidbartosik.com/2004/10/make-autorun-cd-rom.htm Make yourself an auto run file and place it in the Publish folder. Burn "contents" of Publish folder to CD.

You might have to specify a path to the file you want to open. Perhaps [autorun]open=start.exe Interactive Landscaping/index.htm Alternatively here is a link to perhaps an easier way of doing this: http://www.webthang.co.uk/tuts/tuts_misc/autorun/autorun.asp DavidF > for some reason that didnt work either. everything is in the same folder and > I named the main file index.htm [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] > > > > >> > Thanks > > > > >> > Kyle Cook Thanks for the info I will give it a try > I am just guessing here, as I haven't done this myself.

But when a copy the folder to the CD then write the files to the CD the CD dosent AutoRUn to the site?? Thanks For all the help so far, but The CD should Auto Run I THink [Autorun] open=AutoRunPro.exe [AutorunPro] Run1=Interactive Landscaping.htm the icon is named Interactive Landscaping not .htm > I just tried the autorun pro freeware package, and it worked for me. > Thanks...I learned something today.

Next open the autorun.inf file in Notepad, delete the extra text, leave the following and Save As the change to the new folder 'MyCD': [Autorun] open=AutoRunPro.exe [AutorunPro] Run1=index.htm Then assuming that you published your site to a folder on your hard drive called 'Interactive Landscaping', then all your HTML files, including your index.htm file, and supporting files and folders are in that folder. Copy everything in that folder to the MyCD folder. Then copy the AutorunPro.EXE file into the MyCD folder. (Note: look at the screen image on the tutorial under Step 4) Then, burn the CONTENTS of the MyCD to your CD...not the folder itself. Hope this helps.

If you follow the directions CAREFULLY from the link, and you published your website normally and let it publish with the default index.htm, then it will work. If you chose to name it something else, go back and do it again. Otherwise I don't know what to tell you. Good luck. DavidF > auto runs when i double click on the drive from My Computer.

Right click the drive letter in Windows Explorer and select Properties to access autoplay configuration.

Having tried Publisher versions after 2000, I can understand the impulse to build a big fire and toss it in... lalalala >I am wanting to burn my website to make an interactive CD-ROM.
