Re: How do I Save from MHTML .mht to HTML format only

Hi David,
Thanks for your response. Your instructions were very clear and I really
appreciate that. After following your instructions, I uploaded the index.htm
file using FileZilla. Upload was successful. However, when I entered the
URL to go to view it in real time, it showed a parent directory (the home
page of the web hoster), and the Index.htm file as links rather than
automatically opening to my web page as the other (2000) file did. If I
double clicked the link, it opened into a partial web page, mostly black and
white text, no graphics, and text was overlapping...formatting all messed up.
So something is missing, and something about the way it is being read at the
other end is not right.

My internet provider (local) www.eoni.com provides what they call free
space of posting web pages or storing files. This free space will only
accept html files. Something still isn't translating correctly. Yet the
2000 version (which of course is no longer installed) loaded and opened and
was formatted fine.

When I opened the file to preview it before uploading, everything looked fine.

Any other ideas?

Thank you so much,
Cherrie

When you generated your web pages with Pub 2000 you did a file save as. In
2007, you can still do that, but perhaps try the more common method. File >
Publish to the Web. In the dialog make sure the file name is index.htm and
direct your output to a folder on your hard drive where you can find it. You
can use index.html but it should be easier to use the default .htm
extension. In Publisher 2000 you automatically were given a "Publish" folder
when you did your File Save as a Web page, but in 2007 you create your own
folder. When you have saved your files to that folder, open it with Windows
Explorer or My Computer. I prefer WE and detail view so I can easily see all
the files and file sizes. You should see an index.htm file and an
index_files folder that contain your other pages and all the supporting
graphics and images.

Unless you specify a File > Save as .mhtm. or .mht file, you should not be
seeing that extension. Nor should you generally be uploading a .mht file to
your host...save that option for perhaps emailing a single web page
containing the graphics to someone.

You can now upload the index.htm file and the index_files folder to your
webhost.

Hi,
I created my first web page in Pub 2000. Uploaded it to my web host.

Later I upgraded to Pub 2007 and made revisions. When I went to upload
the
revision I discovered that my web host will ONLY accept HTML extensions
and I
am unable to save my page as HTML only. The host will not accept MHTML or
files with .mht extensions.

Someone told me "Look for the Save as type, "Web Page, Filtered (*.htm;
*.html)" but this saves as MHTML as does saving as Single File Web Page.
I
was also told "You will only see the parenthetical if Windows is
configured
to show file extensions. But the right thing will happen if you choose Web
Page, Filtered. The extension will default to one of htm or html if you
don't
specify an extension. If you really want one specific extension of these
two,
then type that in as part of the file name."

So, I am running Windows Vista, MS Publisher 2007 and the parenthetical
(*.htm; *.html) does not appear with saving as filtered web page, and it
saves it as MHTML with .mht extension that my host will not recogize.

I'm not super techy. Can somebody who KNOWS, walk me through the steps on
how to bypass this and actually save as HTM or HTML? MS Pub 2000 had this
option right in the pull-down menu...2007 does not. Thanks!
