Vintage Lover Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 I need a total newbie tutorial on how to FTP web pages using something like Netscape communicator. Thanks! Sandra Quote
wampthing Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 I would take a look at something like CoreFTP. It is a free program that is used just for what you are looking. Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 Check out the movie tutorials on the TCH help site. Quote
j2k4b Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 I recommend using FileZilla... Easy to use and FREE! Quote
Kevan Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 What program are you using to edit your web pages? Many editors have the ability to ftp your pages to your site to. Some call it "publish your site" Quote
Vintage Lover Posted April 14, 2006 Author Posted April 14, 2006 What program are you using to edit your web pages? Many editors have the ability to ftp your pages to your site to. Some call it "publish your site" I am using Netscape's Composer. I know there are better alternatives out there but it's free. Quote
Kevan Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 I am using Netscape's Composer. Look for the section on 'HTTP publishing' in Composer. The good news is Composer can upload your pages to your website. It's just a matter of setting up the program properly. Try looking in Help for "Publish". You'll need your ftp settings provided in your welcome e-mail from TCH. Once you get setup it will just be a matter of clicking the Publish button. Let us know how it goes.... Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 If you are looking for a good free HTML composer here are links to two of them. They both support publishing your site. NVU HTML-Kit Quote
Vintage Lover Posted April 14, 2006 Author Posted April 14, 2006 Thanks Bruce. These look great. Do you have any experiece with them? How "clean" is the code? Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted April 15, 2006 Posted April 15, 2006 Sorry, no I use a plain text editor to do HTML and CuteFTP to upload the pages. Quote
Vintage Lover Posted April 15, 2006 Author Posted April 15, 2006 I downloaded NVU. Very easy to use. I created a "test" page but I keep getting an 503 authentication error message. I used one of the ftp accounts that is showing on my ftp control panel in cPanel. I hope I am using the correct password. How can I get another welcome email sent to me? Quote
TCH-Don Posted April 15, 2006 Posted April 15, 2006 How can I get another welcome email sent to me? Open a help desk ticket to the techs, with your account name and domain for a start. Quote
