ITE 115 Student Web Page Creation
First: All students have an
account on the student web server. To create your web site, you must store
files in your personal subdirectory (folder) on the web server computer. To
access your subdirectory on the web server, you must know your NVCC
Second: most of this information
about uploading may be obtained from the NVCC web page:

Create this simple HTML document and save it as index.htm
to floppy
disk. Add to it later.
<html> <head> <title>My
Test Page at </head> <body> <p> <h1><center>Woodbridge
Campus</center></h1> This page is brought to you by
<b>Elmer Fudd.</b> </p> <p> Woodbridge Campus is located in </p> </body> </html>
A very
simple and direct way to FTP to your Web folders:
(a) Use Microsoft Internet Explorer (your
browser):
(b) In the browser’s address window, type: ftp://www.student.nvcc.edu/
(c) Press [Enter]
(d) Log on to the ftp server using your own
credentials such as:
(1) NVSTU/JBSMITH56
(2) Type in your password

your files from the local hard drive to your Web folder on the server
(f)
Your Web folder will have an address like: http://www.student.nvcc.edu/home/jbsmith56 and you may
view your uploaded files there.
2. You
may use WS_FTP95 LE to upload index.htm to the student web server. If you don’t have
an ftp program at home, you can obtain FTP Explorer from www.ftpx.com as shareware, but free for
students and faculty.
