How to upload website

H.Lalnunmawia · 31-01-2007, 01:59 AM

Inspired by Digit Fast Tract 'Web Design' I build a personal website using Frontpage 2002. I tested offline with the three common browsers and it seems fine, but I have problem uploading it. I applied for a free sub domain (my-site.net)and got one active account but still I could not upload it. What more things do I need to do. Please help.

u need to get a web hosting service.. Free or paid.. Then u need to upload ur files to their servers and redirect ur domain to their address

The site you want to upload should have frontpage extensions enabled and ftp uploads.
But, seriously you'd be better off not using frontpage. There are many more WYSIWYG editors producing neater code. Dreamweaver is great but way too costly. There are free options too.

most sites support browser uploading.. Btw the best html editors r kwrite n notepad

Frontpage has inbuilt ftp uploader AFAICR.

use filezilla if you host support FTP
frontpage's FTP client is crap!

Thanks guys for all the support. But sorry, Frontpage is all I have and all the other webdesign software I got from digit CD have limited functions.

I tried google But it requires a GMail account. When I try through Mobile phone India is not listed there. Could anyone send me an invitation to GMail account through my email: aiwamh@rediffmail.com.

Best way is to learn HTML. And HTML is too easy to learn for anybody. You can then use such editors to make your work easier and remove all unneeded codes, if you know HTML and css.

Learn HTML. As soon as you know the "basics" switch over to XHTML and start paying attention to CSS.

You can use Notepad++ to write HTML/XHTML/CSS/PHP. It is a free software.

If you really want to use a WYSIWYG editor, then Nvu is also free. But all these WYSISYG editors put in unnecessary code!

It's not teasing. I just had a laugh reading it. I often had more laughs at my writings.
