MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / May 2008Text box is adding links
Hi, I'm using publisher 2003 to create my website. I've just encountered a problem that I can't figure out. I'm adding a text box to the top of the home page and filling it with a picture. I can publish that no problem, but when I add text to the picture it creates a link to a non existent page!! Any suggestions as to why? Thanks Picture is also linking!. Website is here if it helps www.takingthelongwayhome.co.uk Thanks > Hi, > I'm using publisher 2003 to create my website.

And perhaps a better workflow...insert picture into your page and then create text boxes and drag them onto your picture. I see no need of inserting a picture into a text box.

I have also tried just inserting the picture and adding text boxes with the same result .. if I mouseover the picture it gives me a link to www.takingthelongwayhome.co.uk/</a which returns page not found when clicked. Not a BIG problem, just a pain that I can't figure out why it is doing it and not being able to remove it!!

I suppose its possible that somehow you put a hyperlink hotspot in the area...or on the picture...or on the text...or... Bottom line is you need to deconstruct the image and text to find where the link is inserted and remove it. If you can't find it, make a backup copy of your Pub file, and then delete all but that page, and use ww.yousendit.com , upload a copy of that file, and send a link to yourself. Then post the link so I an others can download it, and maybe we can find it for you.

I think it has to do with the way the Publisher template wizard works in some cases, but I am not sure. Bottom line, I can't tell you the why for, but here is the full Publication file fixed: Link: http://download.yousendit.com/19F3D39B769D6F33 A couple other things to keep in mind as you build the site. Before you Publish to the Web and produce your web files, go to Tools > Options > Web tab and uncheck "rely on VML..." and "allow png...". You need to do this so that the site also looks ok in FireFox. I would recommend that you download and install FF if only for testing your site. If you can get the site to look good in both IE and FF, then it will look good in most browsers. Right now it is broken in FF. Also uncheck "incremental uploading..." if you are using FTP uploading. Also be sure to compress your graphics: Reference: Compress graphics file sizes to create smaller Publisher Web pages (2003): http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA011266301033.aspx And, it appears that you were adding custom .htm file names to your pages. That is great, but don't bother with the home page. That page should be called index.htm by default. A great adventure I must say...good luck.

Whatever you did has cured the problem. I have also carried out your other recommendations and everything is looking good, FF included. Thanks also for your good wishes. You guys are a godsend.
