Carlos - 12 Dec 2003 23:52 GMT
Hello, my name is Carlos,
I made my web site with Microsoft Word XP, and I
published it with an FTP program. I put some images in my
web site and there's some friends that can't see them
because a pop window appears saying "You have to install
the VML thing in order to see this page correctly" And it
happens ONLY when i publish it with Microsoft Word,
sometimes, when the user downloads this "component" it
turns his/her computer off!!. What is it? Is it my server
Earthlink? Or is it my free domain name server? I dont
know, but I would like an answer. I hope someone reply
this, Sincerily, Carlos

Carlos,
             Below is a link to a search at google groups, which archives
this NG.
The search was on VML between the dates of October 12, 2003 and today.

In the below, I previously advised somebody how to turn the embedded image
on in Word.
To accomplish your goal, your need to turn it off and then recreate your
page.
The downside is that it will create another conflict of how to adjoin the
images to the webpage.

Prior to creation on the intended html, Open Word and make the following
>>> >changes:
>>> > Tool/Options/Web Options/ Pictures/ tick/check box which reads "Rely
on VML
>>> >for displaying graphics in browsers"  OK yourself out and create you
page
>>> >adding the image (s) you desire in the process.
>>> > The result will be that you have a solitary file  with no external
images
>>> >necessary. You should also be aware of the downside  of VML? Non MS
users
>>> >will be prompted for downloading of a VML software to recognize the
embedded
>>> >image.

Neither you or I or any other webmaster and/or webpage creator has any
degree of control over which software a visitor uses to browser our pages.
Nor do we have any control over how their computer might react to any
webpage.
The best effort we may provide is in creating a cross-compliant page which
is acceptable to either ALL browsers or at least most.
Unfortunately when creating webpages with Word, that is NOT possible.

Hi Carlos,

For 'public' web pages in Word 2003, under
Tools=>Options=>General=>Web Options select a low
level (older) browser choice for broader compatability
and uncheck the 'rely on VML' box.  Vector Markup Language (VML)
is a method to portray the contents of a 2 dimensional graphic
using descriptions that the browser can then rebuild as a graphic
display.  Also, try using File=>Save as Web Page-Filtered
as the save type.

There is a VML feature that can be added to older MS browsers
(it's built into newer versions) but it may not be supported
in other brands.  Downloading generally wouldn't cause a computer
to shutdown.

If your ISP supports FrontPage Server Extensions (check
with the domain host) then you may want to look at using
File=>Save as Webpage, Filtered and save directly to
your web page rather than use a separate FTP method.
That can help insure that the graphics are placed correctly
for your web pages when you use MS Word for creating them.
