Making a Web Page for CSI 801

Spring, 2000

  • Log onto science.
  • Make sure your account is worldreadable:
    cd ..
    chmod 755 (your accountname)
    cd
  • Make a directory for your Web stuff:
    mkdir public_html
    chmod 755 public_html
  • Make a directory for your CSI 801 Web stuff, within public_html:
    cd public_html
    mkdir csi801
    chmod 755 csi801
  • Within csi801, make an index file, index.html.
    This file contains text and information.

    Use your browser's command to view the source of this file to see what a file looks like.

    A note of caution:

    The Web makes it very easy to copy text from someone else. That is generally OK, so long as you do not put it in your own account and present it as your own. Doing that is plagarism, and is a crime.


    Here's a bare-bones template for an HTML file:

        <html>
        <head>
        <TITLE>My CSI 801 Homepage</TITLE>
        </head>
        <body>
        <H1>CSI 801 ... your name ... </H1>
        <P>Here are links to my assignments, etc., etc.
        <P>Here's a link to my project.</P>
        </body>
        </html>
