Newbie Question

[Guest]

I'm still trying to get my first page published.


Server error: 'images' does not refer to a page or folder in this web. It
may be a page or folder in a subweb, or it could be a badly formed URL.

are you working within a web or just a page.
how are you trying to publish?
to get a good answer we'll need more information like "exactly" what you're
doing that gets you this result.

Thanks for responding, Chris.

I'm trying to create a single page for my agency's website. Technically
updating the page, but for me it's like starting from scratch. When I
created our page a few months ago using Word, the webmaster didn't get the
graphics right - so this time I wanted to do the whole thing & just send it
to him to post.

At first I tried using FP to publish to a Comcast site. That didn't work,
so I subscribed to a Yahoo service, and that's not working either - so far.

I did notice Yahoo cannot publish some FP 2003 pages, and that's the version
I'm using. I had hoped maybe what I was doing wasn't that complex, and I
could make it work.

All I really want to do is create a simple page with text, a few small
pictures, a few links, and test the result in a real-world environment - as
opposed to the "view in browser" type of thing.

Any suggestions are sincerely appreciated.

ok,
what you'll need to do is start with a "site".
in FrontPage: file/ new/ site (pick one page or empty).
when it's open hit file/ import and import your page and all the images it
uses.

obviously there's a lot of nuance and a million different ways to do
something, but that's the shortest path to some kind of success.
the general rule is when working with FrontPage always use file/ open/ site
not file/ open.
