when i finish my design and get to the congrats page the view in browser option is greyed out. i have been using this program for months and this began happening only recently. i am trying to remember if it happened right after i downloaded an update but can't. is that the possible cause?

Hi,
if "View in browser" button is greyed out this means either IIS (Internet Information Server) is not installed or not running. You need to make sure IIS is up and running on your box.

Hello! I have Windows XP Home and I do not know how to get the IIS up and running on my box. Can you give me a step by step explanation. This is becasue I am new to this program and my 'View In Browser' box is grayed out. Can you please get back to me asap. Thanks

I don't think IIS is included with XP Home Edition. I know it comes with Professional Edition. Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for "world Wide WEb Publishing Service." If it is there, then start it. If it is not there, then IIS is not installed. You can probably get more help on Microsoft forums. There used to be something called "Personal Web Server" but I think they stopped shipping that with XP.
