Centralizing webpages. Please help!

L

Linda D

I am very much a beginner and this is my first go at web building.
I have my site ready to upload to a server. I have one concern though before
I do.
When I look on web page preview this pages appear to display to the left
2/3rds of the screen with the right 1/3rd blank. Is that how it will appear
when I upload or will it be central when displayed?
If not central, is there a way to make the pages centrally display?

That is the way Publisher creates webpages, left justified. Publisher 2000
and 2002 are the easiest to center justify and later versions of Publisher
can be centered. Resubmit your posting with the version of Publisher you use
and someone will respond, as I if you use Publisher 2000 or 2002.

The fix to center pages using publisher 2003 and 2007
Publish to your hard drive
Edit the htm file(s) and replace <head> with

</head><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"
width="760"align="center"><tr><td>

" All on one line "

If you are using a page width different than 760 pixels change that number
in the above line

If you have multiple pages you might want to look at
http://www.emurasoft.com/replall/ a simple replace lines in multiple htm
files

Then ftp the files to your ISP

Notepad works
Wordpad words
Any text editor works

"Replace in files" is easiest for multiple page sites

I thought that might be the jest of your comment and for thoese who frequent
here for help and might benifit from the addition I added a few other
programs that will work as well. Thanks for the input. (Always open for
sugestuions) I added it to the canned remarks for centering. And yes I am
there..... What led you to that observation?

pages. Will the multiple page replace software you suggested and feedback.

keep in mind you will have to do this every time you make a change to the
original pub file because Publisher will likely overwrite your externally
made edits.

Exactly,

After any changes (*** one extra step ***):

1. Publish to the hard drive
2. *** Run replace in files ***
3. FTP to server

Replace in files remembers the string and folder

From the file menu
.... Publish to the web
.... Select the folder that you wish to place the web files in
.... The web site is now on your hard drive
.... Modify the HTM files
.... FTP to your hosting's server
