The WWW
folder in your AugNet space allows for easy web publishing. To place
files on the WWW, first access your WWW folder using any method
described in detail at the AugNet
Help
page. Placing properly
formatted HTML and graphics (i.e., .gif and .jpg) files into your
WWW folder will automatically publish them to your website. It's that's
easy! ___
To publish correctly, your HTML files must be properly formatted
following common standards. For example, the home page must be named
'index.html' and you must use relative page references (these standards
and naming requirements are described in detail in the lesson on how to
create
your web site).
Once you have found your WWW folder, open it (double-click on it). This
will reveal its contents (if any).
As you can see in the example above, this web site contains six items:
five HTML pages and one JPEG graphic. The owner of this site could view
his or her web site by using any web browser and typing their personal
web site address. Use the following URL to view your web site:
http://web.augsburg.edu/~username/
"~username" is your AugNet user name, for example, my username is "erickson," so my web site URL is:
http://web.augsburg.edu/~erickson/
Your website is public, accessible from any Internet-connected computer.
_Setting
up Windows to use WebDav to Access Your AugNet NetStorage Space
(Accessing your AugNet NetStorage space via WebDav is much
better than accessing it via a web browser. In order to
install it, there's an optional update you must download from
Microsoft to install WebDav. It's at this
site. Also, here's more
info
on how to download, install and set-up WebDAV + NetStorage in
Windows.) Information on other ways to access your AugNet space
(on a Mac and Windows) is available at
this
page.
