First, you need to create your web pages with the content desired. For this you need an HTML editor. Two popular ones are FrontPage Express and Nestscape Messenger which are included at no charge with Internet Explorer and Nestcape respectively. Second, you need to copy the pages to your directory on our server. The URL for your directory is: ftp://username@home.prw.net/html where "username" is substituted for the username you use to login. If you are using Internet Explorer 5 you can upload and download the files directly from the browser. Otherwise you can use an FTP program specifying home.prw.net as the hostname with you username/password. Files should be copied to the "html" subdirectory. The main file should be called "index.html", "index.shtml", "index.cgi", "index.htm", "home.html", "home.htm" or "default.htm" (the server checks in that order, in lowercase). If you do not have an FTP program, WS_FTP LE is available at no cost for personal use at: www.prw.net/software/ipswitch/ With an FTP program you have full control of the location and permissions of all files, something important if you are implementing CGI scripts Once you have uploaded your pages they will be acecssible from the Internet at the following URL: http://home.prw.net/~username or http://username.web.prw.net (this last one requires Explorer 3 or Netscape 3 or greater). Remember that you the content of your pages should be of public nature and that they should not contain materia of an offensive or discriminatory nature. Violations to copyrights or pornographic content are not allowed on sites hosted at PRW and could lead to immediate account deactivation. If you plan to do extensive editing, we suggest that you consider a professional HTML editor such as FrontPage 2000. Support for FrontPage 2000 is included on business accounts with no additional charges and on personal accounts with a $ 2 monthly charge(including a subdomain). | |
