I have planned and entered items to cover for our web site. What is next? I
can't seem to move to page 2. So do I need to set it up in Publisher and
then use Front Page and then upload it???
Front Page 2003
 
I'm not sure what you're saying.
No you don't do anything with Publisher, Publisher is a dtp program not web
editor.
Just you FP2003 if that's what you're saying you have.

There is no page 2. The web is not linear such as a publisher brochure. You
don't have set page 1, page 2, etc.. What you have is one main page (usually
named default.htm, or default.aspx when on a windows server or index.htm or
index.html on a UNIX server). Then you add whatever other pages you need,
give them a name, then link to them from whatever page you want them linked
to. So, if you want to have 4 product pages, you could just name them
product1.htm, product2.htm, etc.. On product1.htm you could create links to
product2.htm, product3.htm, and product4.htm.

Another thing to keep in mind, the web doesn't set pages to be a particular
height and width. A page is simply a blank canvas without dimensional
restrictions. To ensure your site is viewed appropriately, you may want to
create a table that is one row by one column and place your content within
it.

If you're used to working with applications such as Publisher or
Illustrator, you can basically forget almost everything you know about
designing pages, almost none of it applies to working with the web.
 
Wel

Publisher and Frontpage are two different things... So, you need not to use
Publisher for creating second page.

Also, if you need help from me regarding any particular specific problem
while designing and programming in Frontpage as well as Javascript and ASP
and few other things too...

Publisher can create and edit web pages. Under the "File" menu choose
"Publish tot web" and follow instructions.

Check out this
site:http://www.zones25-26.org/PresidentialMembershipConference/index.htm
It was all done in Publisher and is all contained in one file, index.htm. I
edit and make changes and then simply republish the whole thing to the web.
It would not be a good thing for large webs, but for quick and dirty webs it
is pretty nice.

Note: to FP oldtimers, the process defys a lot of logic, and the learning
curve is brutal, but it works. Newbies seem to catch on quicker.
 
Just because a program can create web pages, doesn't mean you should use it
- Word or Excel can also create web pages but should not be used
- Publisher creates text based IE specific web pages (using word/shape art), and cluster files which are not cross browser
compatible
(and in many cases the text on the pages is an image so they are not accessible and SE friendly)

Check the page in FireFox and Opera.
The rendition in Opera is bad, and in FireFox the entire left column
(navigation) is missing.

In my opinion, Publisher (any version) is the worst ever web page editor
- your page, while it looks good in IE7, unfortunately just adds
weight to that opinion since it fails in 15% of browsers in use
(FireFox, Safari, Opera, Netscape, Mozilla etc.).
