Insert HTML Code using Publisher 97

NewToDesign

Hello, needless to say, I am using a dinosaur, but have designed my website
using Publisher 97. My problem: How do I add "PayPal" Shopping Cart Buttons.
PayPal only gives me HTML code, and I can not insert this code directly
using Publisher. I was told to save as an HTML file and open in Notepad, and
tried it, but then could not find all of the locations within the text where
I wanted the "Buttons" to appear, and also could not then open that file back
in Publisher to "View" the page layout and move the buttons exactly where I
wanted them. I just purchased Microsoft Front Page 2003 in hopes that I
could "Copy Paste" my entire work from Publisher 97, but with no luck. I am
very WebDesign illiterate and could use some kind help. Thank you for your
time.

Since you now own FrontPage, you finally have the right tool for the job.
But, as you've learned, you can't copy and paste. You are going to have to
start from scratch.

Thanks for the info. Looks like I will be learning Front Page after all.
Have a good night!

You too. You may want to pick up a book to help you. Try Barnes & Nobel -
they have a $10 series that isn't too bad.

Thank you Ms. Paules, I will definitely check out B&N for a tutorial.
Hopefully I will be able to learn Front Page fairly fast (Publisher was
simple). Have a great day!
