Publishing Web Pages on BUBBS
How you "publish" your web page depends on what web server you will be using. In general, the idea is to copy the related .htm or .html files, the picture files. (If these files are stored in multiple folders, you also need to copy the folders to the web server, and maintain the relative folder structure.)
Here are instructions for publishing your page using BUBBS as the web
server. BUBBS is
1. Log in to BUBBS. On your Desktop, there should be a folder called Web Publishing Folder (or Home Page Folder if you use the previous editions of BUBBS). Open it. If you can't find it, do File... Open... Web Publishing Page (or Home Page if you use the previous editions of BUBBS).
2. Locate the folder on your computer that has your web document, for example something like My Documents \ My Webs \ myweb
3. Resize your windows so you can see both that folder and the Home Page Folder.
4. Drag the file from that folder into the Home Page Folder.
Once
the files finish uploading, your page is now published. The URL of your web
page follows this pattern:
My BUBBS email account is shieu-hong.lin@biola.edu,
so the URL of my home page folder is http://www.bubbs.biola.edu/~shieu-hong.lin
When I drag and drop a web page, say, xxx.htm into my home page folder, the URL of that web page is http://www.bubbs.biola.edu/~shieu-hong.lin/xxx.htm
When I drag and drop a folder YYY which contains a web page zzz.htm into my home page
folder, the URL of that web page is http://www.bubbs.biola.edu/~shieu-hong.lin/YYY/zzz.htm
Note: If you make changes to a document, and upload the changed document, BUBBS will keep two copies in the Home Page Folder. You should erase the older version, so the web server will only show your newest version.
If there is a file with one of the following magic names in your root folder: index.htm default.htm home.htm index.html default.html or home.html, then the web server will display that file automatically, rather than the list of files in your root folder when someone goes to your web page. It's a good idea to have a file named index.htm in your Home Page Folder.
