If you wish, you may choose to save your password so that you don't have to enter it each time you log in. If you wish to enable this feature, check the box marked "Save Password".
Next enter the Page Title at the top of the window, and also the Filename.
When you are finished entering these settings, click on the OK button, and you will be connected to your server. The Security Information box may open, if so, just click on continue, and your file will upload.
As soon as a file is uploaded to the web server,
it is available for all to see. If, after uploading a file, you are still
unable to see the updated file via your browser, try hitting the "Refresh"
or "Reload" button. If that fails, you need to clear both disk
and browser cache. This function can be found by selecting Options - Network
Preferences in Netscape, and Tools - Internet Options in Internet Explorer. Remember that you must first be connected to the
Internet through your local Internet service provider in order to connect
to the web server.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- All passwords, usernames, and file names are case sensitive. Example: if you typed FILENAME.GIF in your HTML document but named your file filename.gif it would not work. They must match up in order for your page to show up properly.
- Any and all files you want to be accessed via a web browser must be placed in your www directory.
