Need Help - Publisher Site is Crashing IE; Publisher 2003

Hi All,

Hope someone can help. I've successfully loaded many publisher sites to the
net. However, I've recently installed IE 7, and since then a new site I've
tried to publish to the net is crashing every IE browser I try to use (did
not try it in netscape), and sending an error report to Microsoft! This is
terribly frustrating, as it does not happen when I load the files into a
folder on my hard disk. Any one else having problems with Publisher lately?

I hope someone can help, as I can't afford to upgrade to Office 2007, and
currently can't upload sites to the net.

Thanks all.

BlueEsq,

Why not simply use an FTP program to upload the files until this problem
is solved. SmartFTP is free for non-commercial use. You can publish your
files to disk, then upload them to your web site.

As an aside, lots of people have talked about how IE7 installed and runs
without any problems whatsoever, lots of others have reported it nearly
caused Armageddon on their computer.

In addition to what Mike suggested, you can roll back to IE 6 by
uninstalling IE 7 through add and remove.

There have been a few people that have reported a problem with Publisher
built sites crashing IE when viewed. I am not sure this is what you are
asking. Could you post the URL of the site so we can see it?

To Clarify: I've done some testing today, and it seems that the Publisher
site I recently designed and loaded is crashing IE versions 6 and lower. It
seems to work on all version 7+ machines, and my machine as well.

Rob: I don't usually post my URL's on this service. I'm in the adult
business in Canada (where the adult business is completely legal).
Unfortunately, as soon as I make that public, I see no further help or
assistance; and it's not wise to do that with minors probably accessing this
MS Office forum online.

My reason for the post was to see if DB MVP would kick in, and give me an
idea if MS knew of this issue, and had plans to address the issue (as I
assume DB is tapped in to MS to a certain degree).

Anyways...thanks to both posters for their prompt replies. I can only hope
that some patches are released soon for older version, so that the sites can
be accessible for those who choose to see them down the road. I've also heard
that MS is considering moving towards an "auto-update" scenario (not a by
choice one). That would be a good thing to do, as it would finally begin to
give us folks a level playing field to work with as we continue to build
sites.

Thanks everyone.

The occurrences reported to this group were few and far between, and David
Bartosik did pursue the issue with MS, but they came up with no solution.
The best guess was that it had something to do with hosting the site on some
unix platforms, and that switching to a windows platform might help. I would
not expect to see a patch for the problem as MS has not figured out why it
happens.

I would still suggest that if you did not have this problem with IE6, then
to roll back to IE6 by removing IE7 via add and remove. As Mike pointed out,
while some people are having no problems with IE7, there are many others
that are. Perhaps down the road a bit MS will patch IE7 to resolve some of
the issues that people are having, and in the process fix this issue.

Good suggestions; many thanks.

Yup -- I'm on a UNIX platform. I'm going to try the rollback to v6 tonight,
and then upload some sites, and do some testing on a few machines. I'll
report back. It's a shame, 'cause I do like IE7.

Final Wrap Up:

I rolled back to v6 last night. I also got my hands on the culprit PC, and
downloaded a bunch of security updates (from .Net updates, to numerous MS
security patches)...however, all to no avail. The site was still crashing on
that PC. I could have uploaded v7 to that PC, but I don't own it...so, not my
place to do that.

All that being said, it was still well worth rolling back to v6. I was
finally able to access MS's live safety centre again. The use of that site
(which I used to visit once each week) was giving me script errors on v7,
when I'd try to engage the "clean up" function. Well...after only two weeks
away from MS live security centre over 5501 MB's of useless Temp files had
built up on my PC; and 330+ registry items were cleared during the clean
scan! For those of you who like to "bash" Microsoft -- be advised, I run the
full Norton package too...and Norton does not compare to the MS security
clean (I'm overly cautious when it comes to PC security).

In closing, I guess I'll just have to live with the fact that certain PC's
are going to crash on the site, until MS isolates the problem and addresses
the issue.

Thanks go out to Rob for the rollback suggestion.

Best to all!

David,

My site is still crashing on certain versions of Explorer. I guess my only
option at this point is to re-install the version of Office that I have, and
see if my system responds after I remove all the effect that IE7 has had on
my computer. However, I don't think I should have to go through that hassle.
Although I'm in the adult business in Canada -- my business is completely
legal. I am very upset with Microsoft at this point in time. The site works
on both Firefox and Netscape! Why am I upset with Microsoft? Because, when
someone takes a car into a dealership to upgrade a part (on the
manufacturer's suggestion) their car does not stop working! This is
commercial site; I'm losing money (and probably customers); and this is
simply absurd!

I wrote DB, and he didn't reply. That's fine. I'm only one individual using
publisher...so, Microsoft (and DB) may not care. Moreover, I'm in the adult
business...and that usually places my concerns on the backburner. That's
downright annoying because adult business' have had a KEY hand in helping the
internet evolve into what it is today -- like it or not.

Finally, I've already purchased Dreamweaver on account of this experience.
That being said, I'd really prefer to use Publisher. If Microsoft does care,
would you be so kind as to post the name (or email address) of someone at
Microsoft that I can contact in order to find a resoution to this problem.
I'm very upset. To protect privacy, they can contact me at my email address:
blueesq@hotmail.com.

Many Thanks.

Writing to David Bartosik will not help you. He is busy with other things
right now, and may or may not become active in the group again. And writing
Microsoft about this issue probably won't help either. While I understand
your frustration with MS, you need to remember that Publisher is a DTP, with
limited web building capability. It will never offer all the functionality
of DreamWeaver, FrontPage, and other programs that are specifically designed
for web building. It is targeted toward the user that wants to build a
small, static and simple website. The user that already owns Publisher and
can use the same skill set they use for producing print documents, to
relatively easily build a site. Very few people use Publisher to build a
website. Fewer people use it to build complicated business sites. Fewer
people use it for large commercial sites. And even fewer people experience
the problem you are having. Microsoft is simply not going to allocate time
and resources to fixing a problem only a handful of people are having,
especially since they offer other web building programs for people who find
Publisher inadequate. Furthermore, their time and resources are going to be
directed toward Pub 2007, the two new programs that will replace FrontPage,
the new IE, the new Office, the new Vista operating system, etc.

As I said, I appreciate and even share your frustration. Not only do I
devote a large amount of time here in this newsgroup trying to help people
using Publisher and run up against these limitations on a regular basis. I
also use Publisher to build my sites, and have chosen to stay with Pub 2000
because of some of the problems with Pub 2002 and 2003. I also will not
migrate to Pub 2007. But I accept my situation, because I chose to use
Publisher for its ease of use, while knowing that it would limit me in the
long run. I also wish MS would fix some of these issues, and add some
features, but I understand that isn't going to happen. Eventually, I will
move on to other programs, just as it is probably time for you to do so.
Given the fact that you are loosing money by using Publisher to produce your
sites, then it seems a no-brainer to me.

Switch to DreamWeaver since you own it. Or if you might consider Serif
WebPlus10...it appears to be almost as easy to use as Publisher, and has
more capability. Or another program that is recommended and intrigues me is
http://www.nvu.com/index.php It is free.

I'm sorry, I know this is not what you want to hear, but the bottom line is
that you have to be realistic about what you can expect from Publisher, and
from Microsoft. I know it is going to be a lot of work, but it really does
sound like it would be in your best interests to move on to something else.

David,

All I can say is this: How I wish there were more people in the world like
you! Your points do strike a chord..and yes, maybe it's time for me to move
on. My only hesitation in moving on is that Publisher works like
Quark(yes...I'm a print guy at heart)...and that's one of the things I like
best about the program. However, I do have Indesign, photoshop, and
Dreamweaver now...so, maybe it's time to make the leap.

My last attempt to save things could be a move to a Windows server to host
the site (and leave the unix platform). My Hosting company has no problem
switching me over, and there's no cost either. It's just a time thing to do
the switch. Do you think that would work? I do look forward to your reply.

Many thanks.

I don't know what to say either...I just call em the way I see em. Thanks.

As I said in a previous post, you might solve the problem of your sites
crashing in IE if you switch to a windows platform, but even if this does
fix the problem, it is still probably only a short term solution for you,
and could create other problems for you. I am one of those people that
believes that if it ain't broke don't fix it, and as an example still use
the Works 4.5 database module, because I haven't found an easier or better
solution...and it works. I dread the day when I have to switch to something
else.

I have also said many times that I believe that Publisher can be the right
tool, the right choice for producing a website depending on a user's goals
for a website. However given the goals you have for your websites, the
problems you are having and the limitations of what you can do with
Publisher, I think you need a better tool now. The short term pain felt in
learning the new program(s) and the time you will need to invest, will be a
good long term investment for you. I would imagine that eventually you will
find your work easier, requiring less time and money, produce better
results, and ultimately make you more money. When I reach such a point, it
is time to fix it...

With that said, if you do try switching from the unix to the windows
platform, please let me know if it does fix the problem. Thanks.

Kinda doubt switching servers will help. Pub was never designed (as you
know) for web design for anything but the simplest webs. One Pub web we
looked at here not too long ago had over 18,000 lines of mishaga html...for
one page.
