Publisher Web Page Crashes IE 6.0, but woks fine with Firefox

[John k2ox]

I used Excel to graph some measurement data. I then copied and pasted to
Publisher 2003. Added some text boxes. Used preview and all was well.
FTP'd to my site and all was well. Until I tried IE v6.0. The index.htm
page has four graphs, <7K each. IE would only display the second, then crash
and shutdown. Firefox works fine. I've tried this from several computers with
the same results. I've worked on this for eight hours and gotten no where.
I notice that there are tons of files that I didn't expect that get generated
by Publisher when converting to HTML. Is there any way to get rid of this
stuff? Why do I need a 3 meg 'oledata.mso' for two pages of charts. What
are *.emz files. I expected two HTML pages and a half dozen gif files.
Instead I have an exploding head!
Please help,
John

OLE is Microsoft's Object Linking and Embedding technology. Something which
is completely irrelavant to a web publication/web site. As I understand your
post, you copied cells from an Excel file into the Publisher file. That would
invoke OLE and would be the incorrect methodology for a web publication.
You need to convert the Excel file to a web page. Under the Excel File menu
look for save as web. That will then create a web site of the Excel file in
the same process as with Publisher. You then have two options, you can either
upload that site as a separate entity and link to it's home page off of a
link on the Publisher made site, or, you can look in the site files that
Excel generated and locate the images that it made of your cells, and insert
those images into the Publisher web publication. This being the correct
methodology for a web publication for what you are doing.
