why wont my website work properly when on someone elses computer?

[Guest]

I have created a website using FrontPage 2002 and it works beautifully on my
PC, however when I download it to my flash drive and take it with me to
upload onto the "client's" computer, it does not work - the index is the only
page that works correctly. The file structure in the name is different - ie,
on my pc it's c:mywebs on friends it's d:\ (he did not have a myweb folder in
any of his billion drives he's created) and this has to then be changed on
his PC which takes me an hour or more to do (I definitely do not want to be
sitting there that long trust me).

If anyone has a solution I would be grateful. )

"Publish" the web to the Flash drive, or "Publish" it to a folder and the copy the folder to the
flash drive.

Hey that's a kinda cute program...unfortunately it creates Java applet output albums...so you (and any of your viewers) will have to have the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) installed on your machine.

You can download it from Sun's site, but if you can still find a copy of MS's version of JVM.. it's more betta.

If you imported the output folder that MemoriesOnWeb created for you into FP (I'd put it into it's own folder) then it should work...if JVM is installed on viewing machines.

If publishing to a folder (disc based web) make sure it is a top level folder (say C:\mydemoweb\)

I have tried publishing it but will try again - I will move all the
documentation to the top level directory instead of having it in its own
folder called documentation - will give that a try and see how I go...thanks
for your help.
