Re: Display feedback - people having problems viewing my site

Publisher produces static webpages, so there is no automatic resizing. For
dynamic resizing, you will need to use a different program...sorry. If you
would care to post the URL of your website, we can take a look at it to see
if there are any obvious issues, that might explain the problem your friend
had. Were they perhaps using a MAC?

Yes, there are some problems with cross browser support, but some of those
issues have workarounds. For example, I have noticed that many times the
vertical navbars work fine in FireFox, but the horizontal navbars don't.
However if you get rid of the wizard built navbars, and build your own using
absolute links inserted into either text or images, that will usually work,
or you can code a textual navbar, and insert it via the insert html code
fragment tool, and it will work in FireFox. Here is a reference: "Code your
own textual navigation menu in Publisher":

I recently published my website, designed in Publisher 2003, to the web. I
have since found out that people running non-MSIE browsers (specifically
Firefox) cannot see the navigation bars, my logo, and some other graphics.
I understand that this is a known issue for Publisher. However, a friend
opened my website using Explorer and the pages were messed up. I was
really
upset to see the screen shots she sent me. The lines that separate my
text
were skewed - appearing across the text - and there is a graphic right in
the
middle of my navigation bar.

I was ok with taking that chance that people not using Explorer may have
issues, but if Explorer is also coming back with issues, I'm concerned.
What
could be causing this to happen? Is there a setting that I've missed that
will adjust the sizing according to who is viewing it? Any help will be
greatly appreciated!
