Content Fails To Update

I am currently developing my website for my company using Publisher 2003
(haven't gotten funds for anything decent yet). We've created it and
uploaded it no problem. However, we can't seem to ADD any additional
content. We can edit the page no problem, the troubles arise when we attempt
to add more text boxes, pictures, etc. We've enabled incremental publishing,
but nothing is working. The overall webpage just shows a open area where the
content should go. Any help?

Terry,

I have read that the incremental uploading feature works better after you
have used it several times, and perhaps is the easiest way to maintain a
larger site. However, I have always deleted all the files on my host and
uploaded fresh HTML files when I make changes. This way I know there will be
no conflicts, redundant or orphaned files left over. It takes longer but
seems more failsafe.

D.F. makes correct points, but I would suspect this to be a publishing error.
Make sure you are publishing thru Publisher using the instructions available
at http://www.davidbartosik.com
Post the URL of a page in question if you still have difficulties.
