Publish to web can be used to create a browsable web page which contains your book on your hard drive. Then you can manually FTP these files to your website.
1. Use the publish-to-web wizard with "Location" set to publish-to-file to create all the files you need. This will also give you a preview of what the book will look like on the webpage.
2. These files will be located in the c:\program files\desktopathor\uploads folder (in WinXP, in Vista use the preview to find the folder)
3. All the files in there are needed to make the page work, pay attention to the bookload.js file as it contains all the required javascript to load the book inside a webpage.
4. I suggest uploading all the files to a sub-folder on your website then just point a link to the HTML file or embed it inside an inline frame. Check that there are no spaces in the filename.
5. Also make sure that your webserver will allow the downloading of files with the .DNL extension otherwise you may get an unable to download DNL file error. In Windows 2003 this can be done by setting the MIME types. This must be done on the webserver itself not your computer.
