Author Need Help Publishing multiple pages to the web

Hello. I have used Publisher 2003 to make 6 different pages that will be
linked together. I was successful in publishing the first page to the web
via ftp to my host but when I tried to publish the remaining 5 pages using
different names they all look just like the index page even though they have
different names. For example, say the following are my pages addresses'....

www.mypage.com/index
www.mypage.com/aboutme
www.mypage.com/pictures
www.mypage.com/prices
www.mypage.com/whatever
www.mypage.com/who

The first one publishes fine, however, when you enter the web address for
the remaining five, they all look like the index page even though their web
address is different.

I'm not sure what I am doing wrong, but it is starting to drive me nuts!
Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for
your time.

Take care,
Diana

Don,

It's frustrating, isn't it. I have been messing with this thing all day and
no matter what I try, it keeps doing the same thing. I'm hoping someone can
help me figure it all out.

Take care,

Diana

Your description is a bit unclear, but if all 6 pages are in the same
Publisher file, then when you Publish to the Web, and create your HTML
files, Pub 2003 produces an index.htm file and a index_files folder that
hold your other pages and supporting graphics. If you are writing an
absolute link from your home page "index.htm" to another page named
"aboutme" then the link would be http://mypage.com/index_files/aboutme.htm

David,

Hello. Thank you so much. You were right, I didn't have "index_files"
included in the web address. All is fine now and working beautifully. Thank
you again, you have been a huge help. Have a great weekend.

Take care,
Diana

I created pages 4-12 by using the copy objects from page 3, then page 4, etc.
When I checked, there was nothing on pages 4-10, then pages 11 and 12 were
okay.

I tried again today, making sure to insert the name of the page on each
page, hoping that would work, but when I went to the next page, the
information from the previous page was inserted on the new page.

The first 3 pages had familiar page titles like Home, About US, Contact Us,
but my other pages had unique titles.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE HELP ME!

HELP!
