Support Folder - MS Office Publisher 2003

[Need to Know]

I am having the same problem as many others. After publishing to the web,
only my index page appears.

I have read in several posts about all pages other than page 1 being saved
in a "support folder". I cannot find this folder either in my local drive or
in my web directory. At this point only my home page will appear on the site
and any links lead to a '404' error. When previewing the pages in Publisher
all the links do work, but not on the actual site.

Each time I publish to the web I receive a message "Windows could not save
the file to the Web Check your url or network connection and try again".
However, the Index page does save but not the others. After this message
Publisher locks up and I have to shut it down.

Details are: O/S - Vista Home; Office Publisher 2003; Publishing to -
public_html/index; File Name: Index.htm

I would first check to see if you have any design elements overlapping the
work area and the scratch area. Then I would run the Design Checker. If you
don't find your error, then I would try to Publish to the Web, and direct
the html output to a folder on your hard drive. You can look for the
index.htm file and the index_files folder within that folder. If that is
successful then I would suspect that your problem is in the uploading method
you are using.

Is this the first time you have tried to upload the site? If you are using
HTTP uploading, did you activate the FPSE? Did you try FTP?

Here are three articles on Uploading that might help figure out your error:

If you are not using a form on your site, you can use FTP. And in that case,
I would suggest you consider downloading and using FileZilla. It is a free
FTP tool:

In addition to David's advice, are you sure your web host allows
sub-folders? Some of the cut-rate hosts don't.
