Re: Publish a Web site by using ftp with Publisher 2007



Debi

After you have created your web pages
Select > File
> Publish To The Web
> Select the folder on your hard drive where you want to put the htm files
Example "Documents/Publisher Files
> Default name for files will be index.htm
Do not select Tools map a drive at this point
> Select Save
You should have the index.htm files and a sub folder "index_files" containing the supporting pages and files. This is the default for 2007.

The next step is to FTP those files to the godaddy server
I looked at http://glasshappyonline.com/
Is this the site that you are working on? I also see that it was not created using publisher.

If you are not familiar with FTP, Godaddy recommends using FileZilla for transferring files form your computer to the web site. This is a free program and is available at http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client

I want to use Publisher 2007 since I upgraded from Publisher 2000.
OS is XP
Brower: Explorer
URL: Do you mean ftp://glasshappyonline.com
Hosting: godaddy
I don't know what you mean by tried to publish to the web designating a
folder on your hard drive for the htm files? Can you explain so that I can
try this?
I appreciate your response.

I am a bit confused with your statement
"when I use Publisher 2000 I can publish to the ftp,....."

Are you still using Publisher 2000, or are you using a newer version?
What OS are you using?
What Brower are you using?
What is your URL?
Who is hosting the web space?

Have you tried to publish to the web designating a folder on your hard drive
for the htm files?
If so does the site look OK when you open it from there?
If it looks OK there have you tried to FTP those files it to your server?
