[GaryP]

I had just created a web-site for a bussines in publisher 2007, I am not and
expert web designer, I used a few pictures and images for my site that i had
created in photoshop jpg file, using a 60% image quality and web recomended
size, but I still not satisfied how it displays on the web. its displays
quick but in frames just like when downloding a big picture and you see the
backgroung color of the page and a red X at the top , my question is, How can
I improve and make my page to be display as one and keep the same quality?....
.thank you

In publisher 2007 there is a "compress pictures" function
It is on the picture tool bar
Try that and see if that helps

What is the URL of your site?

You're using FPSE which appear to be installed on your Windows server. Are
you publishing to the server using http:// method or a third party FTP
client?

It kinda looks like you need to talk to your host and make sure they have
the forms handler setup properly so your users don't get prompted for the
log-in.

As per the pictures, the quality on your home page all seem fine to me when
viewing your page with IE7 and FireFox. I am still not sure of what you mean
by "How can I improve and make my page to be display as one and keep the
same quality...". Your page is going to load incrementally. It will start
reading the code top to bottom, left to write and the text is usually going
to be the first thing that is rendered. The images will follow in order
depending upon the file size of the images. In your case it does appear that
most of your images have been "optimized" for the web and they do load
fairly quickly with one exception. Your header or banner image is a bit
large at 35 kb http://www.remaq-hn.com/index_image5481.jpg , but that is not
that out of line for a large banner image. Other images such as
http://www.remaq-hn.com/index_image3451.jpg is just a bit over 8 kb which is
great. However, it appears that you have included an animated GIF file made
up of several gifs: http://www.remaq-hn.com/index_image309.gif This image is
871 kb in size and thus is going to take quite a while to load. On my
dial-up connection it takes about 5 minutes to load 1000 kb, so this image
takes a good 4 minutes or so. The 8 kb image is going to load fastest, the
35 kb is going to take longer, and the 871 kb is going to take the longest.
If the large animated gif is the image that you are concerned about then you
might want to either not use it...use a single picture, or use a javascript
slide show which would load individual pictures faster than the combined
animated gif.

By in large as I said, I think the quality and size of your images are just
fine, but you are using a lot of them as compared to the amount of text.
Just remember that the more you use the longer it will take for the page to
render. And as Spike suggested you can compress the images if you don't
optimize them prior to inserting:

Reference: Compress graphics file sizes to create smaller Publisher Web
pages (2003):

Reference: Compress Pictures dialog box (2007):

Now if I did not address your question about your images, please post again
and described your issue more completely, and I will try again.

As per the form since you posted a second question about that I will address
that there.

You probably corrupted the FPSE when you used FTP uploading. Try
uninstalling and then reinstalling the FPSE on your site. Go to the Support
section to learn how to do that. You might have to have your web host do it
for you, but generally there is a way to do it yourself. If reinstalling
your FPSE does not work, then post again.

It appears that the site is hosted by "Gate . com"
They have CGI and PHP hosting capability
My two cents - Get off the FPSE and go with the cgi or php form programs
One thing I do not like about FPSE is that the email address used is
viewable to anyone who loads the contact page

Gary

The hosting I referred to is the form process
Look at the host help files for the form mailers that Gate . Com uses
I am not familiar with gate . com (hopefully they have an online help
section)
You can use their files to manage the form mailer that you made using
publisher

CGI Mail form
This is a method that work with most hosting services:.

If your host supports cgi and has a form handling program then a form
created in publisher will function using FTP upload rather than front page
server extensions to upload the pages. You must tell the server what e
mail address you want the form results sent to. Some hosts are different
than others. Check with the host help section on handling forms for that
information.
Locate the cgi form handler file on the server. It is probably in the cgi
or cgi-bin folder. Again ISP’s are not all the same. For example, if the
form handler is in the cgi folder and it is named myform.cgi then the path
for the handler in publisher will be “ /cgi/myform.cgi “ without the quotes.
In publisher create a page for your form and build the form. In the form
properties window select “Use a program from my ISP†in the action section
insert the path you discovered above. Example for godaddy.com is “
/cgi/gdform.cgi “ without the quotes.
From method is Post
In the hidden fields window: enter under Item “subject†no quotes an in
the item value for subject enter a subject line that you want on the form
when you receive it.
Below the subject enter “redirect†no quotes if you want have a thank you
page built and in the item value enter the path to your thank you page
Example: “ /thank_you/thankyou.htm “ the thankyou.htm file is located in
the thank_you folder in the root directory. The thank you page may have a
link back to the page where you came from or any where else you so desire or
an auto redirect script with a delay. The auto redirect script is inserted
using the HTML fragment function and looks like:
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="4; url=/index.htm">
In this case the time delay is 4 seconds and the page that will come up is
the index.htm.

Hi Gary,

Publisher pages are automatically left justified, so you will need to use
another method to centre the pages.

This is the method that I use for centring my pages with 'Replace in Files'
in 2003, although it works for 2007 also. Once it is set up I find it quick
and easy to use.


Download free from http://www.emurasoft.com/replall/index.htm then set
coding as follows:



Find: </head>



Replace with: </head><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"
width="760"align="center"><tr><td>



File Types: *.htm



In Folder: Use the ... button to browse to the folder where you directed
your web files on your computer when you Publish to Web.



You can copy and paste the codes from here.

Once you have set this coding, the programme remembers it so you only do
this part once.



So, each time you've saved your changes to your pub. doc. and 'publish to
the web', close this file and open your folder containing your index_files
and index.htm. (I keep these in a folder on my desktop marked 'HTM & HTML')

Open 'Replace in Files' from your programmes and a box will appear. Click
'Replace in Subfolders' and 'Replace All' and you should get a "Finished"
dialog that will confirm the replaced strings of code for each *.htm
file/page in your web files.

You will need to repeat this last part each time you update your pub. doc.
and before you re-publish, but it only takes a minute.



Close 'Replace in Files' and publish your website via your usual method,
when you look at your site on the web, it will be in the centre of the
screen.

Just note that this will not show in a page preview, only after you've
published.
