How to install your web pages on the web site.
If you don't want to write your own HTML files, try the auto-creation
interface.
Requirements for files:
- text must be in HTML code
- The web server is a case sensitive machine. This means that
'
index.html' and 'INDEX.HTML' are different files. Make sure
you name your files with the same capitalization as used in
the '<href>' and '<img>' statements in your .html files.
- your main/default page should be named '
index.html'
- file name: extensions should be '
.htm' or '.html'
- graphics files should be in '
.jpg' or '.gif' format
Putting your pages on the server:
- get FTP software [getting software]
- connect to the FTP site '
homepage.macomb.com' [details if you need them]
- login as your username
- use your regular password
- change to the directory '
public_html'
- use FTP '
put' command to send your files [details if you need them]
- The FTP software should automatically determine the type of transfer (ASCII/text, binary, etc.); occasionally you will need to specify the type of transfer.
- text files (including .html files): transfer as 'TEXT' or 'ASCII' or 'raw data'
- graphics files: transfer as 'Binary' or 'raw data'
