compatability with Firefox

[Tom V]

I have built a site using front page and publisher and published it to server.
works and looks great, when you access site from firefox I ohly get the
first page.
The website is www.mtvpresbyterian.org

VML is IE only, and won't work in other browsers.
Using Publisher: You're lucky the first page even shows up in FF.
Publisher is not meant to be a web design program.

What is your suggestion for me todo with my website, and how?

Start over. Don't use Publisher or any VML.

[Mike Mueller]

the two biggest generators of VML are Word Art & the Drawing Tools

Dont touch them

Are you using a Publisher Master Page? If so don't.
Actually, you'd be better off using JUST Frontpage.

One of the ways you can "make" frontpage produce more widely usable pages is
to go into the defaults and turn off everything that is Internet Explorer
only. For instance in FP2002 its: Tools->Page Options->Compatiablity tab.

Make sure you have FPSE unchecked as well as VML at the minimum. You might
want to uncheck frames and VBscript (but only if your not going to use ASP).

Hope this helped.

That won't help at all if he's mixing Publisher generated web pages and FP
pages though.
