publishing to godaddy.com with pub 2007 beta ---no images !!!

[Eric]

When I preview the website it comes up beautiful. When I post it on go daddy
with their ftp rogram ---all the text displays on the home page but no
images. And no second page at all. Please help.

Sounds like you didn't upload the index_files folder. When you Publish to
the Web, I presume that you publish to your hard drive somewhere. Look to
where you published and you should see an "index.htm" file and a
"index_files" folder that contain your other pages and images.

Hello David,
What happens to these web pages when the beta runs out of time? Can you maintain
them with 2003? Are the two versions that much alike?

Hi Mary,

Good question, and I am not sure of the answer, but I think so. MS has
tweaked the HTML coding engine somewhat, but it is largely unchanged. I
guess I'll need to add that question to my list of things to test.

I have tried that ---I copy every file individually ---it is a drag and drop
process . On the left is your files and on the right is my web servers file .
I delete the old and copy the new ---they dont seem to work over there.

Perhaps review the uploading procedures, and especially the troubleshooting
article here:

If you still can't figure out what you are doing wrong, then post back with
the specific steps you are taking from the time you choose to Publish to the
Web.

Also do your get an index.htm file plus a index_files folder as your output
when you Publish to the Web? Do you upload the index_files folder in whole,
or do you just pull out the individual files and upload them separately?
Those files need to be contained in that folder, unless you have chosen to
not use a supporting folder in the setup under Options.

Though it should make no difference at all, someone else posted recently
that GoDaddy requires the index file have *.*html extension vs. the default
*.*htm default, so you might save it that way when you Publish to the Web??
