Default Publish as HTML - 12-29-2003 , 11:18 PM






I just received Nova Greeting Card Factory Deluxe as a gift.YOu are
supposed to be able to publish a project as HTML but I am having a
problem trying to publish a greeting card as HTML. I can save and upload
the project just fine but it cannot be viewed correctly using the few
instructions that are listed under Help. I even tried adding a new page
to my home page just to use for this purpose, but the files cannot be
inserted properly. When I save a project it save it in folder with
several files including jpgs and an index.htm. When I upload it to the
web it is supposed to come up as the complete card but it doesn't.
Any ideas?

Sharon

The only thing I can think of, and which I had trouble remembering 7
years ago when I started using HTML, is to make sure the image tags
are pointing to the correct image directory.

I.e., if you have images stored in an "images" directory, your HTML
will have to reflect that. <img src="images/xyz.gif"> Also, make sure
that your image file is written exactly as it appears in the
directory. Some server systems are case-sensitive while, at the same,
time, some HTML programs write code only in lower case. A file name
saved as XYZ.gif or xyz.GIF will not be read properly if the code is
written xyz.gif ... and vice-versa.

The best thing to do is dispense with any gimmicky HTML program, and I
include FrontPage on that list, and learn to write code yourself. It's
not that difficult, especially when combined with the power of
cascading style sheets.
