web site only looks correct on my computer

[Todd0180]

I have designed a site using Publisher 2003 and everything looks great on my
computer (XP sp2). When I have anyone else view the site from a different
computer, the images overlap the text and all the formating changes. I want
to finish my site (as I like how it looks on my PC). Can someone PLEASE help
me. The site is loaded on www.ispcatalog.com. Thank you.

It looks okay on my system.

Using IE 6, on a 19" CRT set at 1024 x 768.

(This is why you should always view a site at different resolutions and
browsers.)

If you are using Pub 2003, then the pages can load slowly and initially will
look like you have the overlaps. This might be especially true of someone
with a slower dial up connection. However, if they wait a while, the page
will sort itself out. It looks fine from my computer.

Four flashing images seem to be on top of text. I'm using Internet Explorer
6 on a DSL line, Windows 98SE, 1152x864 32bit color.

 

[Todd0180]

That's what I'm hearing from other people. For some people it looks fine,
for others the images go on top of the text. Can anyone help??

Open your website pub file and try running Tools, Design checker and see if
that finds any problems.

David,

At 1024x768 it still comes up with four flashing images on top of the text.

'Don't know if my monitor and graphics card have any affect on it but
running a Hitachi CM 761 19" with a Radeon 8500 graphics card.
Also have ATI (??) and set on large fonts.

I had the above written when the light bulb came on with the last line. I
have my display settings on "Large fonts". If changed to small fonts Todd's
site displays in fine quality. 'Course text looks like it was written with 4
point fonts.

Is there a way to use the default "small fonts" and increase the size of the
fonts in programs?

The only errors that come up are "story with text in overflow area". That
seems to be directed to the left side menu though.

 

[Don Schmidt]

I found that because I have selected "Large Fonts" in Start, Settings,
Control Panel, Display, Settings, Advance tab it causes the images to appear
they are over the text. Could be others have also selected "Large Fonts".

I'm not sure if this will help any, but I created a couple of templates
through Publisher and uploaded them to view. Everyone I uploaded had the
same problem. The only thing I can think of that could cause unaltered
templated to be messed up is a default setting in Publisher, my OS (XP), or a
setting being used at the host server. Any help is very needed!!! Thank you!
