MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / September 2006How do I upload a Publisher website to the Internet?
I have followed the book word by word and produced a website in Publisher which I cannot upload to the Web. People tell me that it is impossible! I went to a Webmaster but he said it can't be done. Is this true? - I bought Publisher especially for this job and now I can't find anyone who can make it work. I subscribed to Zen and have a domain name. Hope somebody can advise me what to do as I have put a lot of work into this thing and it may be for nothing. Thanks Geoff Tyson Geoff, It is certainly possible (mine is stictly Pub 2003 and uploaded with an FTP and it works great in IE and Firefox) but you have to tell us what you have done and what Versions of Pub and FTP if you are doing it that way, you are using. I am sure DavidF will give you the right answers but he will need more to go on than you have given us so far.

[quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > > > Thanks Geoff Tyson DEAR DAVID F AND JOHN G, THANK YOU BOTH VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ADVICE. CRIKEY! I WILL GET TO WORK ON IT ALL. IT'S IN PUBLISHER 2003. I BOUGHT BRIAN AUSTIN'S BOOK: PUBLISHER 2003 IN EASY STEPS, WHICH HELPED ME A LOT TO GET TO THE POINT OF UPLOADING TO THE WEB. BUT I FLOUNDERED AT PAGE 177. IT SOUNDS PRETTY COMPLICATED AND, YES, I DID MENTION TO ZEN THE FACT THAT IT WAS IN PUBLISHER AND YES, THEY DID REACT A BIT. OH DEAR! I HAVE ALSO PURCHASED SERIF'S WEB PLUS 10; IT IS HARDER TO USE THAN PUBLISHER, BUT THE PEOPLE AT SERIF ARE MUCH MORE HELPFUL THAN MICROSOFT. ALSO, THEY DON'T HIT YOU WITH A £35 BILL WHEN YOU ASK THEM SOMETHING. MAYBE, HAVING REGARD TO YOUR COMMENTS, IT WOULD BE BETTER IF I WERE TO COPY EVERYTHING ACROSS FROM PUBLISHER TO SERIF WEB PLUS 10? YOU CERTAINLY WERE NOT ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT MY USING PUBLISHER FOR A WEB SITE! THANKS AGAIN. WILL GET BACK TO YOU WITH THE RESULT. GEOFF TYSON I didn't mean to put you off to using Publisher, its just that it is a DTP primarily, with limited web building capability. So if you had bought it for primarily DTP use, that would have been different. As you have Serif, that particular program has gotten good reviews by several people in this newsgroup, and their customer support is supposedly excellent, so I would suggest that in the long run, you might be happier if you put your energies into learning how to use it for web building. That is what it is specifically designed to do. Good luck.
