My ISP gives me some free webspace, I've registered and I can see a webpage that says it's under construction - what do I do/need now?
I'd like to muck about with this free space as cheaply as possible till I learn a bit about setting up a webpage. Eventually I'd like to create a small site with a Intro/contacts front page and a password protected area with few files available for dowload and upload. Any advice/links to articles or freeware welcomed. Kevin. |
i used microsoft frontpage to create my 1st website.
|
index.html goes into the directory, and thats your 1st/home page

You need an FTP program to transfer the files, and something to create the pages if you don't want to do it all freehand.
http://www.coffeecup.com do both, or you could try MS Frontpage for simplicity |
It’s probably best to get the hang of basic HTML before you start using FrontPage that way you don’t totally depend on it. I use SmartFTP to upload my files and found this site helpful for learning HTML code http://www.wigglebits.com/.
My web page made with FrontPage http://www.kenegie.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/index.htm My basic HTML web page made with Microsoft Notepad http://www.kenegie.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/cars.html [Edited by Tim-Grove - 4/14/2003 7:11:55 PM] |
Thanks for the help, now starting to understand what I need to do. Doesn't help when the host seems to be up and down more times than Ulrika's underwear.......

There is an error on your site tried to click picture in Grounds menu and Blue Yonder told me off :) Just info nice site John |
Tim_grove, you must have spent at least 5 seconds on designing that site of yours. LOL.
BB:) PS I am only jealous, because i cant design to save my life, despite working for an internet company... hahahahah |
kevin, learn some basic html
then rip off other peoples sites and nick all the good bits. thats all programmers do!!! lol. it will give you an understanding quickly, and save you lots of laborious workthroughs..... good luck BB:) |
About 4 secs beemerboy:D, that’s only my second attempt a building a web site didn’t even know what HTML was a few months ago. Don’t use computers at work or anything and only have average computer knowledge, so im pritty much a beginner to building web sites too.
Mrx I was tidying up my web space putting pics in folders relevant to there page rather than just junking everything in together, when I had finished I seemed to have lost the pictures somewhere still had the thumbnails but the main pics had gone??? Must have deleted them by accident and I haven’t got the originals on my hard disk because I have reinstalled windows since. I will have to get round to replacing the pics with new ones soon. |
Tim
Was not criticising just thought I would let you know incase you missed it. Look at the state of my site--www.johns.me.uk-- |
