Re: Publishing Web Page For First Time

David,

I don't have a "Save In" area on this pop up page. I can see my folders and
by clicking on the folder, designate where the file is saved. Otherwise the
drop down list is for "Save As - Type" and another drop down list for "File
Name". Other than that I have a Tools button, Save or Cancel. Those are the
only options. I don't know if that helps you, but I think this is
substantailly different from XP or other versions.

Thanks for the IE and Publisher and OS used, and I got the directions you
followed from your previous post. I also wanted answers to this:

"After you click Publish to the Web, and the Save in dialog box pops up, you
have a "Save in" field at the top of the dialog. Directly below that on the
left side my XP shows My Recent Documents, Desktop, My Documents, My
Computer, My Network Places. What do you see listed there?"

David,

I am sorry, I have not been on here for a few days. I hope this helps you,
I
am using IE 7.0 and Publisher 2007 on Vista. I ended up using Fling from
File
Zilla to upload my site and it works well, with only one or two bugs in
it.

Here are the steps I was trying to follow with Publisher but gave up on:

Step I try to follow publishing website to Webhero.com

1. Open website file within Publisher 2007
2. Click on Publish to the Web
3. Publish to the Web Dialogue box pops up
a. In the File Name drop down box it is populated with "index"
b. Save as, type drop down box says: Web Page, filtered
c. There is no visibility to ftp locations
d. Click on Tools drop down menu
e. Select Map Network drive
4. Map Network Drive Menu pops up
a. Leave as drive Z
b. Folder drop down is blank
c. Select Browse and a Browse window pops up
i. Select a network shared folder
1. Network
a. Owner-PC
i. Printers
There are no other folders or subfolders and the Create New button doesn't
work, I close this pop up
d. Click on link to: Connect to a website that you can use to store your
documents and files.
e. Add Network Location Pop Up window appears
i. Click on Next
ii. New Pop Up Window appears - Add Network Location
1. Select Choose a Custom Network Location and click on Next
2. Specify the location of your network window pops up
a. Enter: ftp://ftp.levation.net (levation is the name of my
website,
not the hosting company
b. If I click on the Browse button, I get the same result as 4.c. above.
c. Click next and a new window pops up asking me to Specifiy a user name
and
password if Required
i. It is defaulted to Login Anonymously, but I uncheck the box and type in
login name and click next
d. New dialogue box appears asking to name this location, I enter name and
click next
e. Pop up says I have successfully set up network location
f. I click on Finish
3. New window appears - Could not log in to server with login name and
password. I have verified I am entering the correct information, but retry
anyway and click Log On, but the system won't take the information. I
click
on cancel
4. It appears the folder I created is located under the Internet Explorer
directory

I am in the process of writing up some new directions for FTP uploading
using IE7. If you would answer a question or two, it would help. I do not
have Vista installed so I need to know what you are seeing as you try to
upload.

After you click Publish to the Web, and the Save in dialog box pops up,
you
have a "Save in" field at the top of the dialog. Directly below that on
the
left side my XP shows My Recent Documents, Desktop, My Documents, My
Computer, My Network Places. What do you see listed there?

If you or anyone that is using IE7 would please post back with the
answers,
and I will be able to move you a step or two closer to successfully
uploading your files. If you are using IE7 and XP, please let me know. If
you are using IE7 and Vista, let me know. Also, please specify which
version
of Publisher you are using.

call"
you
might try, but when I do mine I ftp to domainname.com/mywebsite, not
sure
how webhero would know what to do with it.

No, of course not, I using that as an example. The actual doman name
that
it
would take ended up being ftp://ftp.webhero.com I have not idea
what
that
accomplished, but it created a directory and folders. I still cannot
publish
to the ftp site, I'm missing something. I need some detailed step by
step
directions, but the website doesn't give them.

Surely you do not enter "ftp.domainname.com" did you?
domainname.com
should be the name of your site.

When I enter it, it says folder invalid, choose another.

Any help?
