Text disappears when grouping
LS.
Im working for a big company which asked me to make a new bulletin, so after series of tests I found out that making a webpage in publisher 2003 was the easiest ways to reach the targets. I am stuck now with the following problems: I made the layout in a table which was not steady when publishing, so now Im switching everything to text boxes. But when I link these text boxes together, to prevent them from moving around the screen when uploading, the text disappears when publishing. So Im looking for - easy edible text areas - steady layout Does Anyone (anyone at all) have any ideas how to solve these issues? I already tried everything. Thank you so much in advance!

Text disappears when grouping
The short answer is to ungroup the text boxes and every other element on the
page before you publish. Here is my boilerplate answer to the 'grouping' issue for IE8 and Pub 2003 and 2007. In the future please post web design question to the web group: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...sher.webdesign or http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...&lang=en&cr=US -------------- There is a compatibility issue with IE8 and Publisher 2003 and 2007. Any design elements that are 'grouped' together, which includes the Publisher wizard built navbars, do not render when you view the web page in IE8 . The fix in general is to ungroup the elements. There is both a manual fix to these issues and a Service Patch that has been issued to fix it for Pub 2007. Reference: Navigation bars and other content is missing from Publisher HTML output in Internet Explorer 8: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969705 A manual method of fixing this grouping issue: After making and saving any changes to your Pub file, and prior to uploading new web files, make a copy of your publication by doing a 'File Save As' and in this copy go to each page Edit Select All Arrange Ungroup. This will ungroup the Publisher built navbar and disconnect it from the wizard, and the navbars will render correctly in IE8. 'Publish to the Web' from this copy of your publication. When you want to make further changes in your web, go back to the original Publisher file, make the corrections there, save your changes, and again make a copy, ungroup the navbars and produce new web files for uploading. The advantage of this workflow is that you will not have to rebuild the navbar if you choose to add a page to the navbar. If you do not need to add a page or section to your site, you can leave the navbar ungrouped and skip the step of saving a copy. Publisher 2007 can be fixed manually or with the Office 2007 SP2: Reference: Description of 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP2) and of Microsoft Office Language Pack 2007 SP2: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=953195 Some users have found SP2 breaks Publisher, and makes it impossible to open existing Pub files...you know, break one thing to fix another, so there is a hotfix for that: Description of the Publisher 2007 hotfix package (Publisher-x-none.msp): October 27, 2009 http://support.microsoft.com/default...b/976177/en-us DavidF marjolein o. wrote in message ...
