MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / July 2007Edit from two locations
My business partner and I work on website from our homes. How do we download the alterations made by one so as to not lose or have to duplicate work? That is to ask: we both run Publisher, how do we share files, directly download web pages or some a futile e-mail attempt? Publisher web pages are edited from the original Publisher document, therefore that is what you need to share....not the html files. You could potentially email the file to each other, or perhaps just upload it to your webhost for storage, and download it from there. Hopefully you both have broadband as the file can get pretty large. DavidF > My business partner and I work on website from our homes.

Thanks for the info. Might just go with the e-mail option, as not sure about the capabilities of my host....and oh yeah, vista sucks > Publisher web pages are edited from the original Publisher document, > therefore that is what you need to share....not the html files.

David, I believe you use Pub 2000. As far as I can see, if you start a WEB PUB in pub2002/3 (or I guess 2007) and then save it as .htm or.html then there is no .pub file created. Just the (name).htm and the (name)folder containg all the other files. It is possible to save a .pub file but it does not seem to be inevitable. My site that you looked at some time back has no .pub file associated with it. Then if you call it anyting but INDEX.htm there will be problems after it is uploaded -- John G . > Publisher web pages are edited from the original Publisher document, > therefore that is what you need to share....not the html files. You [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >> directly >> download web pages or some a futile e-mail attempt? Hi John, Sorry my answer should have been phrased better. The OP wanted both his partner and him to be able to make changes in their website by editing the html files on their host. However, Publisher is not a html code editor...you do not directly edit the web files (index.htm, the index_files folder and all the *.htm and graphic files within it). If you want to make changes in your website, you go back to the original Publisher file (*.pub), make the changes, produce new html files/web files and upload the new files to your host. So the OP and his partner have to find a way to share the updated Publisher file (*.pub)...not the web files (*.htm) produced by Publisher. As was discussed they can simply email the Publisher file to each other after they make changes, or as I suggested upload the Publisher file to their host after they make changes. This Pub file can be stored on their site without affecting the html files and be available to download by the OP or his partner when they wanted to make changes. You would treat the Pub file exactly how you would a PDF or perhaps a DOC file: Including external files in a Publisher web: http://msmvps.com/blogs/dbartosik/archive/2006/01/07/80561.aspx I hope this is more clear...
