Make a WEBPAGE

How to make a WEBPAGE for the school WEBSITE, and UPLOAD it. 

  1. Start FRONTPAGE, and start typing.

  2. SAVE it in the SCHOOL FOLDER     (MY DOCUMENTS / MY WEBS). Give it a unique name. If you have to move to another computer, save it on a floppy disk and REMEMBER the name accurately. Write it on the back of this page.

  3. Connect to the INTERNET. You must do this only when a teacher is with you.

  4. Open the FTP programme. Find the file you want to UPLOAD. If you cannot find it, click the REFRESH button. Double-click on the file to UPLOAD it. You must do this only when a teacher is with you. Advanced: If you include a picture in your file, you must upload the picture as well.

  5. Some of our computers are not connected to the INTERNET, so you will have to put the information on a floppy, and bring it to another computer. Ask for a teacher’s advice.

  6. When the file is uploaded, you must make a LINK to it from one of the SCHOOL WEBSITE PAGES. To do this, open the SCHOOL WEBSITE on the INTERNET. (If you can’t find it, look in FAVOURITES)

  7. Decide which page you want to put the link on. A teacher will advise you if necessary.

  8. Edit the page (FILE / EDIT WITH MICROSOFT FRONTPAGE)

  9. Type the LINK text. Make a HYPERLINK to the file you made. (INSERT / HYPERLINK)

  10. Save the file in the SCHOOL folder. Remember the name. Write it on the back of this page.

  11. Swap over to FTP again, find the page you used to make the link, and UPLOAD it by double-clicking it. A teacher must be with you to supervise this.

  12. CHECK the SCHOOL WEBSITE to make sure it is working. If it does not work, ask a teacher for help. Later, you can check it on a home computer, if you wish, with permission from your parents.

  13. When you get used to doing all these steps, you will notice there are many other ways to do it. Stick to this method for the present.

  14. Keep thinking up NEW IDEAS for our SCHOOL WEBSITE. If you come up with something original, ask a teacher’s permission to go ahead with it.
