FP2003 and Publisher generated website

D

Dan Hinsley

I generated a website with publisher, and I could read it just fine in FP
2002. Then I upgraded to FP2003 and now when I open the website I get a
blank page (in design view) with the correct background color. When I look
at the source (in FP) it looks correct, but the page doesn't display
correctly. Is there some setup thingie I missed?

If you could send me email at [email protected], that would be appreciated.

Publisher is NOT a program for making web pages ... FrontPage IS. Use the
best tool for the job. To save time and frustration I recommend that you
start over. Publisher makes terrible code and overly larger file sizes for
the pages it generates. It is too bad that Microsoft even suggests that you
should/could use Publisher (or Word for that matter) to build web pages.
You wouldn't use a screw driver to pound nails would you?

I didn't create the original website, a friend did. And I do plan on
totally redoing the site, but I'm curious as to why this worked in FP 2002
and fails in FP 2003. The HTML looks well formed (even though it has TONS
of VML that I'm not sure what is good for).

Anyway, still curious.
