This has been resolved. I appreciate your tips, David, they were dead on.

Thanks David,
If you go to my page now, it shows the home page. However, the rest of the
links are not working. I followed your directions and they worked, now the
next step is to get my navigation bar to work. If you or anyone else could
help, I would appreciate it. Thanks again.

I would guess that you did not upload your html files to the correct
directory. If you did, then
http://www.smiles-media.com/index.htm would work and it doesn't. Go back and
read the directions from your web host about where exactly to upload your
files. It may be ftp://www.smiles-media.com/ or they may have a specific
folder like public_html where you upload.

When you Publish to the Web to produce your web files, you should get an
index.htm file (your home page) and a index_files folder that contains all
your other pages and supporting images and graphic files. Make sure to
upload both, and the index_files folder intact.

Perhaps reference: Prepare, publish, and maintain your Publisher Web site:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA100947601033.aspx
You will be directing your html output to somewhere on your computer, and
then ftp uploading from there, but the general description of the process
might be helpful. Also read the directions in the FAQ section on uploading
and what directory to use on your host.

I am using Publisher 2003 to design my web page. It is going to be a simple
business site. But I am having major problems. I built the site,
downloaded
cute FTP, and, if you look at the site, www.smiles-media.com, it is just a
bunch of garbled text. I have been asking for help from my web host. They
said to check and make sure it was ascii or binary, and make sure it was
auto
(their recommendation). It already is auto. I tried binary to see if it
would
work. Should I use a different FTP program for publisher? Again, the site
is
www.smiles-media.com, and I am having a real hard time getting this to
work.
I am close to paying for a web designer, or just some help. thanks
