curious ftp-links in the html source code point to .gif - Why?
I created a site with Publisher 2003 and published it to the web. Now
I find some curious ftp-links in the html source code that should point to some gif-files but they do not work. Of course not. Firefox is asking for a ftp-user and IE7 just stops loading. After a while of ftp´ing while browsing my provider simply blocks my ip address for an hour. Reason: too many ftp attempts with wrong or no password. So now I would like to know how does Publisher come to this strange idea of realizing some simple gif´s as links down to src=ftp:// ftp.mydomain.com/var/www/html/index-files/example.gif? Oh, I forgot to tell you that the provider uses a Redhat Apache web server. Maybe this is of any interest. Regards Thomas |

It sounds like you are using a Master page in your web publication. Master
pages should only be used in a print publication with Publisher. Move all design elements off the Master page and see if that fixes your problem. If it doesn't then repost your question in the web group and we will try to help you the microsoft.public.publisher.webdesign Please include the version of Publisher you are using and a link to the problem on your site.

Unfortunately I only started to browse for this ftp-link phenomen in the
groups a f t e r having posted my message. And of course I have read your answer about not using the master page for a web publication more often then once. I will try this change as I come home later this day. But first of it I wanted to express my admiration about your patience of telling this again and again. Maybe it would have been helpful if MS had put this warning to the feature. Thank you Thomas "DavidF" wrote: It sounds like you are using a Master page in your web publication.

Patience? grin Some would disagree. If you want to see patience, then
follow Mary's posts! Actually there is an obscure reference to not using a Master page in a web publication somewhere on the MS site. Unfortunately MS has been a cutting back more and more with each version with HELP articles and instructions both within the program and online. Pub 2007 and Office 2007 are especially lacking. Hope the advice works for you...and thanks. DavidF "Thomas T" wrote in message ... Unfortunately I only started to browse for this ftp-link phenomen in the groups a f t e r having posted my message.

Yes, the advice worked.
Now I am starting the work of fine tuning the site. Thanks again Thomas "DavidF" wrote: Patience? grin Some would disagree. If you want to see patience, then follow Mary's posts!
