My website objects, i.e. PayPal buttons, appear correctly on my computer, but
are out of position on other computers, particularly if the resolution is
different. Is there a remedy for this?

Because of the way the Publisher html coding engine works and produces
pages, the way those pages look vary depending on the dpi settings of the
monitor. Publisher outputs at 96 dpi, and if you are viewing the page at 120
dpi, then the page elements may not appear as you intended.

As there is no great solution to this, my best advice is to set your
computer at 96 dpi, and produce your pages from that setting. Right click
your desktop, properties, settings, advanced, and under Display change the
DPI setting to 96.

Wishing I had a better answer...

Thanks Dave!! It appears to work on another computer now. I'll check some
others later.
