I'm trying to use "Save as HTML" in Framemaker to create an HTML page. Many years a Frame user, but I know in the past their save to HTML tools were not up to the standards I expected, so I have largely ignored them. My bad, probably.

Everything looks fine when I view the output HTML file (all saved to a single file) on disk or on the network, but when I publish the files to the actual web, something (likely the CSS) is messing up and I lose all list elements - no bullets or number show up in the copy on the web. I've gone over the HTML mapping table to make sure those elements are set up correctly. I am by no means a CSS expert but nothing in it is jumping out at me about why I would get different behaviors from having the files local vs. posted to the web.

Any ideas, anyone??
