i'm talking about the nav bar on the bottom - that's the one i've erased. i
see a box on bottom in ie. and yes, i have deleted the previous files, and
reupdted with the change.

also, 5. i publish my files in the exact way that you said. i only named it
"page1" since on my instructions from the teacher, he says that he doesn't
want us to publish under the name "index". but everything else is the same. :)

I did a little more looking and it appears that you have a subfolder in your
name on the school website. If you look at http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/
you will see a bunch of your image files, but no .htm files. Those are the
files that need to be deleted from the server. Also I am not sure what you
actually named your subfolder. In the link it appears to be ~m mite but it
might also be Mona Mitea. Either way this might be part of your problem.
Never use spaces in a folder or a file name for the web. Also as a rule it
is better to use all lower case and no special characters. An underscore
will work, but it will be indistinguishable from a space, so if you must use
a dash instead. So I would recommend that you rename your personal folder on
the site if you can to "monamitea" or "monat" or something like that. With
that said this might not be necessary, or possible if you can't rename your
folder. Try uploading the index.htm file and the index_files folder to your
folder on the server, and test it.

That box that remains might be cached. Try a Ctrl + F5 to force a reload.
But to answer your other issues, it is probably a moot point.

I am not clear about how you are publishing your site, but I would
recommend that you go back to a default method. In Publisher go to Tools >
Options > Web tab and check the option "Organize supporting files in a
folder". Now when you Publish to the Web and get the Save in dialog,
choose "index.htm" as the file name. Direct your output to a folder
somewhere on your computer where you can find it. Publisher will now
produce an index.htm file (your home page) and an index_files folder
containing all the supporting graphics and your other pages of your
site...your other .htm files. Upload the index.htm file and the
index_files folder *intact* to the ~m_mite folder on your host. But before
you do, delete the old Publisher web files from your host. Be careful to
delete only the Publisher files and not any files put there by your host.

You didn't explain what problem you were having with the navbar you
deleted, but I assume you must have been talking about a bottom textual
navbar that you can add with the navbar wizard. I also assume that you
were using FireFox to test that navbar. This is a bit of a bug with
Publisher. The bottom navbar will work with IE, but is converted into an
image for FF, which kills the links. If you want to add the bottom navbar
back, you can get it to work in FF. After adding it back, select the
bottom navbar and go to Arrange > ungroup. This will ungroup it from the
navbar wizard and it will then function in FF. The only caveat is that
once you ungroup it from the wizard, it will not automatically update when
or if you add or delete a page from your publication...so wait until you
have all your pages before you ungroup it, or plan on manually editing it.

hi, i am using pub'07. i have finally managed to build a page... it works
nice except 2 things:
first, the navigation bar didn't work, so instead of struggling with it
some
more, after 2 days i have finally removed it. but on the "related links"
page, it still shows a box with no picture - that was the navigation bar.
on
all the other pages it removed itself except here... i've tried
everything,
in pub there's nothing there... how do i remove it?
second, the "home" page doesn't work. i've renamed it, re-uploaded, it's
now
called welcome. still doesn't work. i've tried to start from another page
and
everything works fine except that first page... how do i get it to work?
i'm posting here all the web pages:

my not working first page: http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page1.htm
and the rest that work except the link to the first page and the box from
the ex-navigation bar on the bottom:
http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page5986.htm
http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page6074.htm
http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page6166.htm
http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page7022.htm

http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page7400.htm
http://jmsb.concordia.ca/~m_mite/Page7537.htm

beginning and the deadline is so clooose, thanks again, mona
