Troubleshoot the look of HTML fragments and forms

Microsoft Office Publisher 2003

There are several possible reasons why the result of your HTML code fragment doesn't look right when you preview in a browser:

  • Your code fragment functions, but might need to be adjusted to perform the way you want it to. Change the code fragment in Microsoft Publisher and preview it again.
  • The HTML code fragment overlaps another object in Publisher. Separate the objects and preview it again.
  • Different browsers interpret HTML in different ways, thus any unexpected result could be caused by the browser you're using.
  • You placed BorderArt around the HTML code fragment in Publisher. Remove the BorderArt and preview it again.

ShowThe result of my HTML code fragment doesn't appear when I preview.

There are a few reasons why you may not see the result of your HTML code fragment when you preview in a browser:

  • The HTML code fragment you inserted is not correct. Check the code fragment in Microsoft Publisher and change it if necessary.
  • The HTML code fragment overlaps another object in Publisher. Separate the objects and preview again.

ShowMy Web form controls don't work.

When adding form controls to a Web page, do not overlap them with other controls or objects and do not use these special effects on them:

  • Rotation
  • Fill color
  • Fill effects (tints, shades, patterns, and gradients)
  • Shadowing
  • Borders or BorderArt
  • Hyperlinks
