ok i know where to store pics free, but where can i save word documents and be able to share them online? ive tried yahoo briefcase but i cant seem to be able to make a link to the .doc and have people go to it. the link keeps changing everytime its opened..

ANYONE?

Hey dude, did you try saving them within Word as .HTM documents instead of .doc?

If you do this they should be able to save in your yahoo briefcase and be viewed in any web browser that supports HTML.

If that doesn't work there are several sites that let you store/share your data online.

One of them is:
MoFile.com

You can hit google with a "free file storage" search and get 52 million hits.

THERES MY ANSWER. YOUR THE MAN BOBK4T

ok heres thelink. Lets see if it works. ok well now the pics in the page dont work wtf. when i made the .doc into a .html web page and put the page in my yahoo briefcase, i noticed that it threw a folder on my desktop w/all the pics from the page into it? how do i get those pics into the html?

I guess that depends, when you inserted the pics did you place them into the document as pictures (ie - insert, picture)? You might try inserting them as hyperlinks instead of pictures. Remember Word doesn't speak true HTML, it's sort of a Frankenstein version.
Try inserting the images as hyperlinks (linked to that folder on your desktop). Bye the way, you can relocated that folder that's on your desktop if you want to.

P.S. It may be easier if you used an application more suitable to this project. Do you have a program that comes with Office called Publisher? It comes with MS Office SBE (small business edition) and higher.

OK, I've found several problems. I setup an account just like yours on yahoo. I setup the briefcase, created a folder and put a test file in it.
Here's what I found while setting the attributes for share on that folder:
"Note: The free service on Yahoo! Briefcase does not allow public sharing of files/full-size images."

I took that to mean that You Can't Use Large (bandwidth intensive) Files, so I used a small one (167k).

Try This

Dude, in the above listed (working) example I used MS Word and imported picture from the menu.
Then I saved it as a .doc type document.
Then I uploaded it to the briefcase.
Then I made sure my briefcase was "shared" with everyone.
Then I copied the URL that links to the doc.
Then I made the above post an hit you with the link.

nope dont work. i did all the same stuff, and i thought it worked because for whatever reason the computer your working on when you browse to the briefcase then do all the pasting and stuff... lets you see it.. i get a no server found page...... hmmmmm.. it works for the html stuff but not .doc and i cant insert the pics for the .doc.. how do i insert the pics for the html...?

You insert the html "link" from the same menu you insert the picture from (ie insert-link).
Make sure you link it to the pics already on the website (briefcase).

What size photos are you putting into the doc?
Try to scale it back until it works, then load it up until you find the failure point.

Hey, in your briefcase (on your name line) does it say your folder is shared with everyone?

Did you see my linked .doc?

Wait a minute, how are you sending the link?

yes the folder is publicly shared. no i cant see your link, and how am i sending the link? i open the html i copy the url and then i paste it here.

ok i can make it like this:
i can make basic html page with text and links
i put all the pics in photobucket and you can link to those pics, but you cant see the pics automatically on the html page like i want them to.... ANYONE?! im about to give up here.html attemptif it opens scroll to the very bottom and try to open the pic link..

Nothing.

I don't actually open the link, I right click on the link in my folder and then hit properties and copy the link from there.

I don't think the problem is with html or .doc.
Can you try to link a pic for me?

Hey try it now. I signed up ($2.95)

Here

nothing but a no server found screen.. i give up. if anyone wants it, just email me an i'll send it .... its to much work....and to much hassle... thanks anyways.. merry xmas
