Microsoft Frontpage • “My Documents” and create a directory of your group’s name • Start Frontpage • Save the file in Frontpage as index.html
Microsoft Frontpage – it’s just like Microsoft Word • Add text • Add a table • Add a picture • Add a link • Add an e-mail address • SAVE!!!!
Copying Files to the Internet • First you need permission • Contact the technology committee at technology@pittmed.pitt.edu if you need permission
FTP • FTP to unixs.cis.pitt.edu • When prompted, enter Pitt userid and password • Look at the box on the right-hand side – this is the target / host / internet computer • The file whose name is “..” means go back a directory • Click on “..” until you are at “afs/pitt.edu”
FTP – What to Click Next • “home” • “p” • “i” • “pittmed” • “public” • “html” • “groups” • [group name]
FTP – Almost there… • With the right window showing the correct target, we’ll make the left window show the correct source • Click the “ChgDir” button • Type “w:\” • Click on My Documents • Click on your directory name
FTP – you’re there. • Select from your target the files that you wish to copy “up” to the server • Click the “”arrow • Open up a new Explorer • Type in “www.pittmed.pitt.edu/[groupname]”
The Future… • Create multiple pages and upload them at will • Download your existing pages, change the information and upload them back again • Send other people links to your site’s web page
