Type in the

Google it)

PROBLEMS?
The home page for a website must be
namedindex.htmorindex.html.
If images dont show or links dont work,
make sure you've uploaded the image or
page that's not working to the
public_html folder. Also, keep in mind
that filenames can be case-sensitive on
Web servers -- uppercase and lowercase
letters of filenames in the href= and src=
attributes in your code must exactly
match the uppercase and lowercase
letters of the actual filenames.

PROBLEMS?
The best way to change, update, or correct
errors on a website is to first make the change
in the files on your computer. Test it there too
(but remember, even though filenames aren't
case-sensitive on your computer, they are
case-sensitive on the Web server). Then upload
any files you've changed or added using
exactly the same procedure you used to upload
files the first time. The newer files will
overwrite (replace) the files on the Web server.
If you then browse to the site and don't see
the correction in your browser, be sure to click
the Reload or Refresh button in your browser
to download the very latest copy of the page.

PROBLEMS?
Any time you need to make changes
to your site, always make the
changes to the files on your system,
and then upload them to the Web
server. That way, the files on your
computer and the files on the Web
server will be identical and serve as
backups to one another. If something
wipes out all the files in one copy,
you'll still have the other copy, so
you really haven't lost anything.
