web page publish visio display fault

[Ian]

Hi,
using: visio 2002 pro, ie 6

I published a single visio flowchart to a web page using
vml as the display and gif as an option for older
browsers. It worked fine while testing on my php apache
server at home tho when i uploaded it to an online server
the image does not load. The other frame loads fine and
functions properly.
Am i missing something? does the online server have to
have any particular services running?

This sounds like you're running into a known problem with Visio 2002. Look
in the sub folder containing all the supporting files, and open up the
*_vml.htm files. Search for "emz". IIRC, the extension will be capitalized
in the htm file, but the actual emz file does not have a capitalized
extension. On Windows, and other OSs where case doesn't matter in file
names, this isn't a problem. But for many Unix servers, this causes an
error. Just change the capitalization in the htm file or change the
capitalization of the actual emz file so they match.

Hope this helps.
