SOSC 5 Assignment 12: Setting Up a Web Page

Fall 1998, Chico State University

 
You will start modifying your "generic" web page today by doing the 
following:
(a) Change the e-mail address;
(b) Change the title of your web page;
(c) Change the heading on your web page.

1. Use telnet to log on to Rocko.  You will be in your home directory.

2. Switch to your web directory by typing in the following
     cd public_html

3. You man use "ls -al" to see the files in a directory.  You should see 
   a file called index.html.

4. Open Netscape & type in the following address: 

http://rocko.csuchico.edu/~your login name, e. g.
http://rocko.csuchico.edu/~shockley
 
This tells Netscape to look for a public_html directory  under your login 
name.
 
5. Alt-tab back to rocko. Make sure you are in your public_html 
directory & type:
   pico index.html   

Note: index.html is the name of the template file for 
your Web page

6. The hyper text markup language for the web page will be displayed. Note 
that all commands are enclosed in < > such as  . The 
end of the command  has a .

7. Move your cursor to the right of  "Another Rocko Home Page" and 
backspace through it and enter a name you want i.e. "Jim's Home Page".

8. Be sure to use "control  o" to save your changes.

9. Now, alt-tab to Netscape and "reload"  Your changes should show up.

10. If everything works, go down the page and  type in your login where it 
says "YOUR_LOGIN_HERE"

11. Now, go down a line and change  "me@rocko..." to your name.

12. Go up to the top & change the title of your web page.  (Note the 
title of your web page shows in the blue bar at the top when you use 
Netscape to view your page.)

12. Remember to use "control o" to save your changes

13. Reload Netscape, your changes should be there.
Note that you can use the same procedures to change other parts of 
the template.
