(A) Check your web site: Your web site should be structured somewhat like the following and the links should work.
(B) FTP: Application to move files between computers on the Internet
File Transfer Protocol is the method we will use in class to move our web pages and pictures from our computer/disk/flashdrive to the http://stuweb.csub.edu/~yourRunnerName/. There are many FTP programs but we will use the one used available in the CSUB labs, WS_FTP95 LE. Documentation on how to use this program is at: File Xfer:FTP
(If you don't have WS_FTP on your computer follow these steps. If you have WS_FTP skip to C)
You can download the FTP
program from CSUB's site.
Copy and paste this into the URL, address for a web page
ftp://www.CSUB.edu/
Double Click on the PC folder
Double Click the Win32 folder
Double Click the FTP Client folder
Double Click the WS_FTP LE folder
Double Click the 5.08 folder
You can drag the ws_ftple.exe folder then double click and follow instructions--remember to check you are a student when you install the program.
From this you can probably see that with new browsers you can use the browser as the FTP program but we will use ws_ftple.exe. It gives us a clearer idea of what is going on and the browser FTP doesn't seem to work in all situations.
Open WS_FTP95 LE, log on academic.csub.edu with your account name and password and transfer your welcome file and picture to the web during lab. Do the same with your other pages and pictures as you complete your other pages.

(C) [Class Demo and steps in class to create] Moving your web files to the CSUB student web server. Be sure and move all your web files to the server. These should include the index.htm page, your resume.htm page your portfolio.htm page and all pictures, graphic files, sound files, etc. that appear on your page.
| Account names have been
created on http://stuweb.csub.edu/~yourRunnerName/
using your RunnerMail email address up to the "@" sign as the
name for your space on the web server. All passwords are set to one of the following: HostName/Address: www..csub.edu User ID Your RunnerMail user name Password Given to you by your instructor ****BE SURE AND LET YOUR INSTRUCTOR KNOW ASAP IF YOUR SERVER USER ID AND PASSWORD DOES NOT WORK***** |
(a) Using WS_FTP_LE go through the steps for Windows XP in the following:
http://www.csubak.edu/%7Ejross/classes/GS390/Utilities/FTP/FTP.htm#FTP%20Transfer%20from%20Windows(D) Web Pages from Microsoft Word: Open your resume created earlier in Microsoft Word. Word is not perfect for creating web pages but for quick and simple formatting it does fine. Remove any items you might not want on the web (phone number if yours is unlisted, address?).
(b) After completing the steps in "a" check to make sure your web page is available from the Internet. Start any browser and go to:http://stuweb.csub.edu/~yourRunnerName/
NOTE: If your web site pages work on a PC but does not work properly after moving it to the web check the following: Are all your web page documents on the server? Are your files named appropriately? Remember the safest format is 8.3. This file naming format must have no caps, spaces or special characters and originally limited to an 8 character name and a 3 character extension identifying the application. NOTE: sometimes the FTP program shows all upper case for files even if the files are lower case. You can select the file then choose Rename to change a file name If you changed the file names to 8.3 for the web did you remember to change the links on your web pages to these new file names?
On your resume using the link tool add a link back to your homepage.
Choose File/Save as Web Page... In the Save as dialog box rename the filename as resume.html
Find your My CSUB Web folder and save it in the folder.
Start WS_FTP LE,
click once on using the Rename button change the name of your resume.htm you just created to resume.html and
transfer to the WWW folder on the server. The new resume.html will replace the old resume.html. Open any browser and check your web site and resume.
We will continue making changes and adding to your web sites for the rest of the quarter. In all cases you will do this as you did with the resume above
