You'll need to get your group's web pages off your computer (the one used to develop your web pages) and onto our server (aka "host").Here are a few ways:

FTP: FTP stands for "File Transfer Protocol", a mechanism that enables the copying of files between computer systems. This is the easiest way to copy your web pages from the development computer (your MAC or PC) up to the host (our web server). Free FTP programs found on Bruin Online are great for this task. We'll provide specific instructions via email when your group obtains or renews a site with us.

Adobe Dreamweaver or Studio 8: This program include a FTP utility obviating the need for a separate FTP program. Dreamweaver, which is often bundled with Adobe Studio 8 suite of design programs keeps track of what files need to be moved from your computer to the host computer (the student group web server in this case).

Microsoft FrontPage: Newer versions of FrontPage include a file transfer (FTP) program. Please use FTP to "publish" your FrontPage files to our server. Keep in mind that we no longer support FrontPage server side extensions, aka "bots", but you can continue to use FrontPage to build and transfer your web pages to our server for your group site.

And Remember: ALWAYS BACK UP your pages onto CD, USB drive, DVD,or other portable media.
