Saving and Checking Your Work

• Go to File: Browse Document
• Save when prompted to do so
• Check links by clicking on them; check that images and formatting appear as they should

• Open Netscape Navigator Gold

Go to File: Open File in Editor (or File: Open File in Browser if you just want to look at your page, or use the links)

Step 1: Create a WWW folder in you SCUACC Account

• Open your SCUACC account using your username and password
• At prompt, type >show quota (This tells you how much free space you have left. Students get 2000 blocks -- make sure you have enough to post your web site.)
• At prompt, type >createmypage
• At prompt, type > cd www
• At prompt, type > dir
• You should see a file called "homepage.html." You want to delete this file because you've already created your own homepage
• At prompt, type > del homepage.html;1
• Log out of your SCUACC account

Step 2: Put All of Your Files (text and graphics) into the WWW Folder

• Open a program called WS_ FTP, which allows you to share files with a distant server
• In most campus computers, find it by opening START menu at bottom of screen -->PROGRAMS --> WS_FTP
• Once you open WS_ FTP, you'll see a window titled "Open a Remote File System." Change the following settings to:

• Remote Host Name: scuacc (from on campus)
• User name: your username
• Password: your password

Leave everything else the same and click Open

• You'll see 2 windows now, one will be titled "Local Syatem" (Your Computer). The other window will probably be called "Remote Site" (the web server)
• In the Loacl side click on "ChgDir"
• When window appears prompting you for a path, type "a:\", and click CHANGE
• In the window titled "a:\" you should see all the files on your disk
• Click and drag each of your files one by one to from the "a:\" window to the other window (you're copying them onto your SCUACC account)
• Click CLOSE and exit program (File: Exit)

Step 3: Change the Protection on Your Files So Others Can View Them

• Log into your SCUACC account
• Go to your WWW folder: at the prompt type >cd www
• At the prompt, type > dir
• You should see a list of all your homepage files
• At the prompt, type >set prot=w:r *.* (NOTE: that's a colon between the w and the r, and there's an empty space between the r and the first *. This is really important.)
• Log out of your account
• Open Netscape and type in the address of your homepage. The address will be: http://www-acc.scu.edu/~yourusername/filename
• Check all the links and graphics to make sure everything works.
• If something doesn't work, you probably have a typo in the address of one of your links or the name of an image. Most likely: the name of your images begins with File://. You need to go back to your disk version, open it up, double-click on the images and change their names to http://www-acc.scu.edu/~yourusername/filename. Then send the corrected version to your WWW folder as described above and below.

Once you've put your page in your SCUACC folder, it can be accessed from anywhere in the world. Congratulations, you've published!
 

Making Corrections to Your Page

• Correct the version on your disk
• Use Rapid FTP to drag the new copy to your SCUACC account, as described above
• When you put the new copy there, Rapid FTP will give a dialog box asking whether you want to Rename the file, because an old file by that name already exists in your account). You want to Overwrite the old file, so choose Overwrite.
