| Microsoft FrontPage Instructions for Students
10/6/06 Start as follows: File New
Web (can use templete, or Empty Web, choose empty for now). Specify location: h:\public_html (it will create the folder automatically, or it can be created before, in your H:\ drive. This creates folders (Private, Images), sets permissions, sets file extensions for you.) You can do work in Word, Excel and transfer it to Frontpage directly. FP is similar to Word, can do tables, styles are a little different, FP is infinite in page length, no page breaks are used. Don’t publish too wide so it doesn’t fit on a small monitor. FP files have .htm or .html extension. H:\public_html will become the URL (Universal Resource Location). In FP, you are asked what URL do you want to modify, so you provide that address in some form. General Do’s & Don’ts -Always include an email contact. - Include the FIU logo somewhere (background, other?) - Include the last-updated: - Always run spell checker - There is no recycle bin in FP, you delete, its gone.
