How to Put Up Your Homepage

 

Create your home page and title it index.html. Our web server will automatically point to this page. Organize your links and other .html files around index.html.

Your files will be in a directory labeled with your login name. Thus, your URL will be

http://www.onr.com/user/login_name

Do not use spaces in file names. Also, links to file names will be case sensitive, so we suggest naming all file names in lower case.

Use relative links when placing links to your own files. For example, to display a graphic file in the same directory:

<IMG SRC="graphic.gif">
To reference an html file in a directory below the current directory:

<A HREF="directory_below/myfile.html">My File</A>
And, to reference an html file in a directory above:

<A HREF="../myfile.html">My File</A>

Here are links to some html resources.

Below are links to page add-ons:
Add a web counter
Add a guest book
Add a fortune cookie

When you're ready to start your web page please email support@onr.com with a login name and password to your personal space on the web. This password is different from your normal login password and is only for this ftp site.

FTP the file(s) to ftp3.onr.com. Login as your given name and password. Place the files into the directory. Your changes should be immediate, you might need to empty your cache with your browser so that it reloads the new versions of the document.

Note: If you use a Mac and you use the ftp program Fetch, make sure you ftp graphics files as Raw Data and not as Mac Binary.
