You being making a mistake mixing Publisher code with the code you already
have - there's plenty of validation errors, but at least it's working. The
question is...do you want to become a webmaster or do you want to grow your
regular business? There's lots to learn about building and maintaining a
website...which is cheaper, paying someone to clean it up in a few days or
you spending a few months learning the skills to do it yourself?

LJ,

Perhaps one of the best reasons to use Publisher for building a website is
as you stated, you can't really afford to hire someone to do it for you. I
think in your case, you can build a site with Publisher that will equal, and
in some respects, exceed what you have now. However, you are going to have
to learn some stuff...and have time for a lot of trial and terror, if you
want to build and manage your own site.

I rethought my original reply after reading your response. I also looked at
your site again, and you could recreate the whole design in Publisher, with
a few changes. And, I actually think you *should* redesign now that I looked
at this page:

It works fine in IE, but is totally dysfunctional in FireFox. That is
totally unacceptable from a "professional web designer" in my opinion.
(note, I am NOT a professional!) Seriously, there doesn't seem to be any
excuse for a professional not building better cross browser support. You can
build the same page in Publisher and it will work in FireFox and most
browsers. It will be left justifified and fixed, and there may be other
small changes...but it will be more functional than the one you have.

I am assuming that this is the way you want to use PayPal. If so, you can do
this in Publisher. I also think that if you go to the PayPal website and
look around the support section for FAQs, you will find instructions about
what code you need to insert into your site in order to use the service. I
really don't think it will be as complicated as you suspect. Once you know
the code, you will just use the insert html code fragment tool in Publisher
to insert the code snippet from PayPal. Like I said...you are going to have
to put some work into this thing...

I would recommend you take the time to read: Prepare, publish, and maintain
your Publisher Web site:

It is written for Pub 2007, but if you are using IE7 instead of IE6, then
the directions for using Vista would apply. FTP uploading has changed with
the introduction of IE7.

Make sure that Publisher is the right way for you to go before you invest a
lot of time...

If you are going to use forms in your web publication, reference: Publisher

Invest some time now in learning about the basics of using Publisher for
building websites, planning your site, and learning what you need to know in
order to make it successful. Read through this newsgroup, and that work
alone will save you time and frustration. If you are willing to invest the
time, you can build a pretty nice site in Publisher, and it will be more
functional than the one you have. Be sure to KISS...that is one thing I like
about your site design. Simple, clean and fast loading...in IE at least.

Good luck.
