Creating Your Personal Web Page

Back to Menu

It is a course requirement. If you don't have a personal web site then please create one. You can create HTML pages with Microsoft Word (from File click New then click Web Pages tab) or use any other tool. If you do not have a web server to load your pages then you can use any of the free commercial sites or we can load them on one of the CS Department servers.

Assignments are due in 2 weeks. Post the answers on your web site. If do not have a web site, you must create one. Use a free web hosting such as http://free.prohosting.com/ or your Pluto account.

You can use Microsoft’s word to create HTML files and use http://comsci.liu.edu/~vasilaky/cpp/ws_ftp32.exe to upload the files to your site.

You may use other publishing tools such as Microsoft’s Front Page. Tutorial: www.lcsc.edu/fptutor/toc.htm
