sorry iam new to this a creted a small webpage i use publisher 2007 and ftp
from explorer to publish it to the web but i have to problems

1. i need to center the page so when is shown in the web browser its in the
center of the page. like www.yahoo.com

when i use a webbrowser with good resolution the pages is shown align to the
left of the page and on the right side there is a white space to the right
like on www.terra.com

2. webbot-self i think this have to be with the server extensions and ftp

Your best bet is to pay for a hosting service instead of using the free
service by GoDaddy. With that said this workaround was posted by Troy:

"Instructions for publishing to an ad-supported free web site through
GoDaddy using MS Publisher

1. Publish website to folder on local computer first
2. Open "index.htm" in browser window
3. Under the "Page" pulldown menu, select "View Source." This displays a
..txt file, showing the html code.
4. Using find & replace (under the "edit" menu), search for the first
instance of the word, "absolute" in the html code, and replace it with the
word "relative."
5. This process must be repeated for each page individually, by navigating
to each locally-published page from within a web browser, viewing the source
html code, replacing the first instance of "absolute" with "relative," then
saving the file before navigating to the next page.
6. Once finished making changes, the locally saved "index.htm" file and
accompanying folder must be copied and pasted, via ftp client to your
GoDaddy
website, and "voila," you should be up and running!"

If you are also asking how to get the forms to work in Publisher, you are
correct, you need FPSE. You won't get those with a free hosting service.

Sorry, if that doesn't work for you, then you will need to switch to a
different host....or different software. I would suggest spending the few
dollars a month and go with paid hosting....but that is me.

Maybe with a few additional replacements, the following my make your chore
easier. I use it for my Publisher 2000 websites.

This works only for websites created with Publisher 2002 and earlier; fairly
certain.

Each of your html files requires adding the <center> code after the existing
<head> code.

You can go into each html file and do it manually or get the free
Replaceinfiles program
and make it an easy chore.

"ReplaceInFiles" can be downloaded from:

<http://www.emurasoft.com/index.htm>

The four boxes require the following information:

Find: <head>
Replace with: <head> <center>
File Types: *.html
In Folder:
(use the button to go to the folder where the html files are located on your
drive)

The bottom four boxes can be left blank.

Note: Once the boxes are filled out, the entries are retained for the next
time you use the program.

P.S. One of the kind visitors of this news group told us of Replaceinfiles
program some time ago; 'Sorry I forgot the individual's name. (Another
unsung hero).

I've been following your thread regarding the problem of centering my
publisher 2007 web page. I tried your fix. It didn't work. My graphics
disappeared and the page didn't center. What did I do wrong?

I was able to make it work on a simple page. With a more complex page it
does not work for me either
