Still unable to Publish site

[Dinger188]

I am still looking for assistance in publishing my site made with Pub 03. I
still recieve the error: "Publisher could not save the file to the Web.
Check your URL or network connection and try again." I totally remade the
web site, changed a few things done wrong in the intial version, and I get
the same result. I downloaded the FTP Editor, "WS_FTP PRO", I can upload the
entire site, but only the home page appears. Links off the nav bar do not
work. I deteleted the nav bar, placed actual links to the other pages and it
still doesn't work. I am desperately looking for assistance, my site has been
down for 2-3 weeks. I'm almost to the point of getting another design program.

Follow up to my original post... I have been in contact with my host
provider, they state my site is not working correctly because my pages point
to a location on my computer. Here is what they said:

1. Kindly debug your coding to the following:

Your Code: href="C:/Documents and Settings/Dan/My
Documents/wwwroot/index_departmentInfo.htm">

Example: href="\index_departmentInfo.htm">

How do I achieve this? Here is how I try to publish, since I can't do it
directly from Pub, as earlier posted, I go to Publish to the web, local
folder on hard drive selected, FTP Editor used to move from local folder to
ftp site.

I need help....

Dinger, Perhaps review the article by David Bartosik at:

http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=324

for a good description of how to upload Publisher 2003 sites.

Dinger, In case you haven't figured it out yet, you are inserting hyperlinks
to your C or hard drive, not to where the files/pages are located on the
web. Perhaps if you read this article by David Bartosik about building a
site with multiple Publisher 2000 files, you will get a better idea of how
to insert hyperlinks, whether you use a NavBar or a textual navbar. It is
easy to get confused:

The issues in this post would be due to your not publishing thru Publisher
and not understanding what is needed as a result of that.

As for your original issue... I have reviewed your publisher file and was
surprised to find mistakes on pages 7, 21, and 25. I thought you'd already
reviewed my FAQ - http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30 - and
thus would have eliminated this already.

The item you'll find on the FAQ, 7th from the bottom, is the mistake on 3 of
your pages. Correct this issue on these 3 pages as documented on the FAQ
item and then resave and republish the site in Publisher.
