Thanks - in fact, the first issue was the first line:

(require 'org-publish)

which gave the error message

eval: Cannot open load file: org-publish

But I guessed I needed to replace it with:

(require 'ox-publish)

And that fixed it.  As for the function you mentioned, I checked
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html#sec-5-2 and replaced
org-publish-org-to-html with org-html-publish-to-html.  And I got
something to publish.  Now that it's basically working I can play
around with the options etc. Many thanks.

By the way, sorry if this isn't threaded correctly; I didn't receive
these emails (mine and the reply) from the list so I couldn't reply.
I have checked my mailman settings and I'm supposed to receive my own
posts.  :-(
