Uploading your web page with Windows FTP

Next we will put your web page on-line in your WWW directory
• For NT/95/98, Click 'Start' then 'Run'
• In the window type command and press [ENTER]
• You should now be running a DOS window
• Change into the directory where you've stored your web page
• At the prompt type cd foldername and press [ENTER]
• You might also note, long directory names might not be the same in DOS. If this is the case, type dir to see a listing of files and directories the way DOS sees them. Normally if the name is very long, only the first 6 characters are the same and the ending is replaced with ~1. Heres an example: long version; longfoldername... short version; longfo~1
