Steps for Using FTP for Uploading an Internet Homepage from the Kaibab Computer Lab
(the same approach will work from home -- you just need ws_ftp)
 
1.  After creating a file by either using Netscape Composer or any other .html editor, save the file by doing the following:
    1. Click on "File" then select "Save As…"
    2. In the box title "Save in:" click on the down arrow button on the right side and then select "Data on kaibabserver (H:)" If it does not say "Data on kaibabserver" …. Look for the "H:" this is what is important.
    3. Once the H: drive has been selected you should see at least two folders on your screen: one says "UserFolder # #" which the # # replaced with the station number you are on, the second folder, which you should double-click to select and open, is titled "EnglishFolder"
    4. Now that you have selected to save your file in the EnglishFolder you need to name the file. I suggest a filename that has your own personal name in it since everyone will be saving to this folder. You can type the name in the lower box with the "File Name:" label next to it. Make sure you append ".html" to the end of your file name i.e. "TylerIndex.html"
    5. Note that browsers tend to be very cAseSENsitiVe.  I suggest using all lower case characters -- check spelling carefully!
    6. Click on the "Save" button to save your file in the EnglishFolder.

      7.  
         2.  Now that the homepage has been created and saved as an .html document, we need to upload (save it) on the U of A’s computer.
    1. Double-click the icon labeled "WS_FTP LE" on your desktop.
    2. Once the application has opened fill in the following data fields with the correct information:


      3. Host Name/Address à "u.arizona.edu"

      Host Type à "automatic detect"

      User ID à your email login name

      Password à your email password

      MAKE SURE THAT NEITHER THE "ANONYMOUS" OR "SAVE PASSWORD" BOXES ARE CHECKED!
       

    3. Click on "OK" to open a connection to your account
    4. It may ask you to reenter your password….if so, then type it again and click "OK"
    5. The left half of the screen are the files and directories of the computer you are sitting at. The right side are the files and directories of your account hosted on the U of A server. On the left side of the screen select the "[-H-]" drive because that is where you saved your file. Once the "[-H-]" is highlighted click the "ChgDir" button.
    6. You should see the "EnglishFolder" on screen, so double-click to open it and then scroll down to find your file. Once you have found your file, click ONCE to select it.
    7. Now that you have located the file you want to upload it is time to find a place in your account to upload it to. On your U of A account all files that you want accessible to people on the web must be placed in the folder called "public_html". Once you’ve found this file on the right side of the screen double-click it to select it and open it.
    8. If you don't have a "public_html" folder, use the "MK DIR" button on the right side of the WS_FTP screen to create one named "public_html".  Double click on the folder to open it.
    9. With "public_html" open, we are now ready to transfer our file. Since we want the file on the left half of the screen to be moved to the right half of the screen, we click on the arrow that is pointing to the right.
    10. Your file has now been uploaded. If you would like that file to be the first thing people see when they go to your webpage, then you need to rename it. By default, any file called "index.html" that is found in your "public_html" folder will be the first thing display when people go to your webpage. So let’s change my file (TylerIndex.html) so it is called "index.html". To do this, highlight the file on the right side by clicking on it once. Then click on the "Rename" button on the right side. Type in "index.html" and then click "OK".

      11.  
         3.  Your webpage has now been uploaded so you can view it online by typing in a webbrowser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator:
"www.u.arizona.edu/~yourloginname"
 
4.  Finally,  telnet to u.arizona.edu and enter the menu system by hitting "m".  Use the down arrow key to scroll down to "MISC", hit return.  Then "Home Page", hit return.  Then "Permission", hit return.  Your web page can now be viewed with any browser.
