Invalid links...

[Unforgiven]

Hello all,

I designed a publisher 2003 web site and all of my links were fine until I
modified the page titles. After modifying the page titles and publishing it
to my web server via FTP, all of my links in the navigation bar changed to
ftp://my ftp address/homedirectory. I read the FAQ on David Bartosik's web
site about the Navigation Bar buttons and others but still no luck. The only
way I could figure out how to make sure they worked correctly was to select
the Navigation Bar properties, select Modify and then type in the URL for
the corresponding page. That works OK, but my picture and page background
graphics don't appear. I don't know how to fix this in Publisher. The only
way I can think of doing it is to modify the index.htm page by hand and I
don't want to do this. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

-U

that nav bar wizard can get sticky and messy, if you tried the resolution
steps on my site and it failed I'd recommend sending the pub file to me for
review.

Hello David,

Thanks. Actually, after posting my message, I discovered that one of the
changes I made was by selecting File / Properties and entering a hyperlink
base. After removing this, it set the links to the pages correctly again. I
don't want to mess with that again but it sort of looks like I should have
but a "/" at the end of my URL. Maybe that's what screwed me up.
