- Needs and current status (discussion), status of unix accounts and
passwords
- Types of websites (illustrative examples)
- Traditional (www.sjsu.edu/faculty/gerstman
or www.sjsu.edu/~gerstman) -
reside on sjsu unix server; need unix account; I'll set up your URL once
you give me your ID and password
- "Web wizard" (http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty_and_staff/faculty_detail.jsp?id=142;
http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty_and_staff/faculty_detail.jsp?id=101)
- also reside on unix server; no unix account needed; apply by clicking here
- WebCT (http://courses5.webct.com/public/hs161bg/)
- request shell via http://online.sjsu.edu/;
excellent tools, but will cost approx $50 per students per course!);
resides on WebCT server (on east coast)
- Strategy: learn web basics on a traditional website; use any of the
above types of websites, as needed
- Some basics
- Naming conventions - case sensitive; no spaces; automatic boot of
index.htm in any directory
- Directory names and paths
- Recommendation - build site on PC (or Mac) and upload periodically
- Use html generator such as FrontPage to write page
- Use Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) to manage files on
hard drive (copy, delete, rename files)
- Upload and manage files on the server with WS_FTP (recommend LE
version): available at http://www.ftpplanet.com/download.htm
- Upload site: ftp.sjsu.edu - load into
users/updates/faculty/lname (demos)
- MkDir
- Sort by Name
