Uploading a webpage to your home directory.

General Settings for using an FTP client:

Hostname or Host Address:

ftp.california.com

Username, Account or UserID:

your email name (without the @california.com)

Password:

your password (case sensitive)

You will need to upload all html and images into a directory named "html" If you do not see an "html" directory already present when you log in, then you will need to create one using the "make directory" or "create directory" command found in most ftp clients.
It is important the the "html" directory is spelled in lower case letters only.

We suggest you use an ftp client such as:
WS_FTP (for Windows)
or Fetch (for macintosh). All of these programs are a free download.

Important:
Uploading web files to your web space requires some knowledge of html. We can help you with problems you have uploading files and images, but cannot assist you with checking your html for errors.

Please keep in mind that html code is case sensitive. This means if you call an image with a file extension of .GIF, then the filename must be .GIF, not .gif. Example:
        <img src="../images/blueball.GIF" width="8" height="8">
If your image is actually called ../images/blueball.gif, the image will not show up.

We do have web designers available to design your site for you. This is an extra charge, and you  can obtain more info including a quote by emailing webmaster@california.com
(Please do not email support questions to the webmaster). - support@california.com

You may use any html editing software you choose. However, we only can support uploading using a FTP client listed above. We do not have the MS FrontPage Server Side Extensions installed for end users, but sites created using MS FrontPage will work on our servers. (This excludes the use of MS FrontPage "web bots").

For demonstration purposes, we will be showing you how to upload web pages using CuteFTP in the available tutorials.
