Getting items to show up in the right side

I have two web pages at this time, on one (www.world-wide-virtual.us), I have a text box that is visible on the right side. However when I tried to duplicate it on a completely different site (http://yca.world-wide-virtual.us) I can't get any thing to sh
ow up. Any help would be great. Using Pub 2003

I bet you have that text box off the document page (white area) and instead
sitting in the scratch area (gray area), butted up next to the document in
an incorrect step to widen the web page.
Page width is controlled in the Page Setup dialog. NOT by placing objects
outside the document page into the "storage" area. I do know that sometimes
a customer will get that to render as I think is the case in your site 1,
but most the time (correctly) it does not and may even create crashes of the
program. Hence your not reproducing it in site 2.
The correct resolution here (assuming my theory is correct on what you did)
is to widen the document area on both sites via Page Setup and position your
objects within the document area in both sites.

You can sure get away with it in Publisher 2000. I do it all the time
whwn I get in a bind, and don't want to widen the page (since that
sometimes causes its own disasters in Pub 2k. I have no idea about
limitations in 2002 or 2003.
