Your ISP may require that you use a particular method of publishing. If you want to use Publisher to update your Web site at a later time, you must save your Publisher Web site as a .pub file, regardless of the publishing method you use. Although you can use Publisher 2000 to generate your Web site as an HTML file, you can't open HTML files in Publisher. Therefore, the only way to update your site is to edit your .pub file and then republish it. The easiest way to publish your Web site is to save it to a Web folder, which is a shortcut to a location on a Web server.
Web servers are computers that are maintained by a system administrator.
Web folders require the support of Microsoft FrontPage 97 or later Server Extensions. Check with your ISP or system administrator to be sure that the Web servers you use support these extensions. To add a new Web folder to your current Web folders On the Windows desktop, double-click the My Computer icon. Double-click Web Folders . Double-click Add Web Folder .
