Word doc to web page

[Sharon]

I created a FP 2003 website using many Word documents
(stories) which I saved as web pages. Now I cannot
remember how to do it. I don't see any place in the Save
As dialog or anywhere else to save a Word doc as a web
page. I don't see any facility in FP itself to do this,
either. How did I do it before?@@##!
Can someone remind me?

In Word, you should see an option on the File Menu to Save as Web Page.

.
I think if you opened your word document as a "web page"

rather than "blank document" it will save as an .htm
document, i.e. web page. If you already opened as a
regular word document rather than a "web page", open a
new "web page" document and copy it from your original.
Hope this helps.

I can't understand why OP can't find it. And you should also compact the
Word-generated HTML. One way is to use
Office 2000 HTML Filter 2.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...EE-3FBD-482C-83B0-96FB79B74DED&displaylang=en
I installed it when I had Office 2000. Now I have 2003, and it still
seems to be there, but maybe something like it came with 2003 and the
old app is gone. Anyway, it still works in my set up.
It makes the style sheets too.
I have Windows XP Home (SP1). I just noticed that that OS isn't listed
on that MS page.

This is the problem: I in fact do not have the option to
Save As "web page." I'm pretty certain I did at one time.
Now, the only choice I get is to save as HTML. The web
pages I have already are " .mht" or MHTML, not HTML. FP
2003 doesn't recognize anything I've done recently that
doesn't have the MHTML extension.

I reinstalled Word. Still no option for "web page."

Ok, since this is a Word Issue, you need to post this to the MS Word
newsgroup.

Are you aware that users of browsers other than IE may not be able to view
the .mht files?

You may want to convert the MS Word .doc files to clean html web pages using the procedure at

I didn't know what .mht and .mhtml were until I just now researched
them. An mhtml file is an html file combined with all its associated
files. I just noticed that Word 2003 (and perhaps other versions) has
this option in the Save as type.. box.

http://www.dsv.su.se/jpalme/ietf/mhtml.html
"The main idea of the MHTML standard is that you send a HTML document,
together with in-line graphics, applets, etc., and also other linked
documents if you so wish, in a MIME multipart/related body part."

But I don't see a compelling advantage to combining all your files in
one. If you use regular html and then want to, say, replace a image with
a better one, you just replace the image file. (If the images are
different dimensions, you may have to alter the size attributes in the
img tag in the html file.) This wouldn't be as easy with mhtml. Another
advantage is that different pages can use the same other files, images,
style sheets, etc.

I recommend just saving in html. If you have associated images, they'll
show up in an additional folder.

Direct me to an example of one of your pages that's on the web.
