[Express] images move and split background

Hi all, Hope someone can help newbie me. I am really digging this program except for one maddening issue i am having. When I import image gallery from Showcase and place paypal buttons under images, when I preview in browser they split the background and go off the sides of the page. I can’t get anything aligned nicely… grrr… please tell me if there is something I am doing wrong in my import or settings. Thanks so much- Karen

Can you post a link to your page(s) Karen as there a couple of reasons that this may be happening.

Sorry - that is a link to the file on your HD - not accessible to us!

Have you uploaded your pages to a server yet?

That link will only work if someone is sitting at your computer. Have
you posted this to a Web server anywhere yet?

suddenly the happiness i found with this program is quickly turning to hatred. I can’t even get it uploaded. the files are right on my desktop. I am using filezilla, selecting the “new website” file on the desktop but it keeps saying , that it’s a directory and its empty.

It is the site folder’s contents that you need to upload - in yours /Documents/Blank%20Website/Site%20Folder

Also you will find it much easier if you let FW do the file upload and file management for you.

File>Document Setup>Upload Tab and fill in the necessary fields

Did exactly as you said. it just keeps uploading a blank folder to the public ftp. I could cry I am so tired with this. Every time I go back and try again it does some new scrambling thing. I think i will just forget about it and pay someone. i have already invested hours and hours on what should be taking minutes.

Hi Karen

It can be very frustrating when things don’t go according to plan.

Are you using Filezilla to upload?

You said earlier that your preview address was file:///Users/grampa2394/Documents/Blank%20Website/Site%20Folder/folkartcowgaller.html

This tells me that your Site Folder is in your Documents Folder in a folder called Blank Website. In the Finder navigate to that folder /Documents/Blank Website/Site Folder/ and just check that all your files are in there ie cowgaller.html Resources etc.

Now ensure in Filezilla that you have chosen the correct Site Folder as the source of your files to upload.

Karen - how did you create the cream background?

Hi Karen,

I took a quick peek, and it looks like if you change the cream background image from a graphic item to an HTML item, your problem will be solved.

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys- That’s what someone at Softpress did for me and now I am up and running. Appreciate all the help. Will I have any problems with what I have created in the trial once I buy. I want to buy today so if anyone can let me know if there is anything i need to do to protect my work I’d appreciate it. Thanks, again.

Hi Karen,

You don’t need to do anything special, the full version will open your file the same as the trial does.
