Making a Web Page in freeservers.com...
Click on the link below.
Freeservers.com Free Web Space
http://www.freeservers.com/
Click on the member Login yellow ball in the upper right corner of the screen.
******
A member Login screen will come up.
put in your new site path, then your password, click on Login. Sometimes a 2nd login screen comes up again & you have to put your pass word in again.
If you don't have a free Domain fill in the box on the first page & then click on the 2nd button next to Register. Follow it through, answer the questions, and get your free 20mg of domain space.
*******
Your Member area screen will open up..
click on Edit my Site
*********
A Power Tools Page Comes up
Click on Manage Files
***********
Now you are in the 2.0 FileManager
This is where you upload your files, graphics, music, & html document. You can also work on a page from scratch in the text editor by clicking on~ file/using text editor
But before you can do all that.You have to start here. The first page you make must be named~ main or index.
You will see an empty main folder in the manager area.
********
Unless you know enough html to make a page from scratch you have to do it like this.
I make my pages in aolpress which is not a free download anymore unless you are on AOL & using windows 95/98.
But you can Make your Web Pages any place such as FrontPage, Homestead, Microsoft Works, Easy Designer, or any number of other places. The point is, whereever you make it, You Must Save it to Your Hard drive as a "HTML" Document. Because it's that Document you will be UPLOADING from up inside Freeservers, along with the Graphics and Music thats on the page, and that you have put in a folder. You don't upload the folder but the graphics and music in it.
You have to do this first.
Put all the graphics you are going to use on the New Page in a folder by themselves, and name the folder with the name of the page.
Also put the music file you are going to use on the page in there. Where ever you make your web page you have to save it in the html format to your hard drive somewhere. I save mine in C:/AOLPress, or you can save it as a html document in the same folder as your graphics and music for the page.
Now make the page like you usually do, using the stuff in the folder for that page.
Make sure your music is named the same as what you type into the html code for the song.
When your finished, Save the page in the html format, and save it in that page folder.
**********
Now back in the 2.0 Filemanager
The first page is called main.html or index.html
Name it that before you upload it, but delete the empty file folder named main in the manager first.
If there are 5 or less files on your page you can click on File/upload file / and a screen comes up with 5 browse boxes.
Go to the folder containing the graphics, music & html page file for your page, and click on each, then open.
then click on upload....
**********
If you have More then 5 files,(1-100)
Click on File / hit the down arrow & scroll down until you see~ Command line
click on it/ a long box pops up..
Type in it~ Upload 25 Files (or any #)
click o.k.
Now you got a lot of browse boxes.
Upload everything that goes on that page that shoud be in that page folder..
Then click Upload.. it will take a few minutes..
When it is finished all the things uploaded will be listed in the white section at the top..
Click on File / Refresh
******
Now if this is the first page you are uploading , and you uploaded it by the name of the page, you have to name it main.html or index.html
there are little white buttons at the left of everything on that page, which by uploading it is already on the Net..
First click the white dot button beside main /
then click File / scroll down and click Delete..
Click on the white dot button beside the name of your page/ click File / rename /
the long command box pops up.
hit the backspace button to erase whats in the box, and type in~ main.html or index.html
click o.k. Now your file path to your first page is~
yourdomainname.freeservers.com/main.html
******
Now leaving the dot beside your new page.html click
on Edit/using Text Editor
when the page comes up you will see your page in the html format. Be careful what you touch in there.You have to click the little square next to the x button in the upper right corner of the page to open it all the way to get to the inner scroll arm you will need to scroll down thru your page.
if you want to add a music code & couldn't where you made the page this is where you put it in.
This is also where you can add a counter to a page which i will explain below.
Its also where you go if a picture doesn't show up on the page or the music won't play and you have to come back here to check the html code to see why. Usually its because it picked up on the url path to the area where you had it. Since all your graphics and music are uploaded to freeservers it should only have the name of the picture, or music. if you see it also has http://...etc then carefully erase that and just leave the name of the picture, or the music.
When you get thru, you scroll to the top by the outside scroll bar, not the inside one you use to view your page, and then click on file/save or you can click on Save as/then o.k. Put the pointer on the page and you will see an hour glass as it saves. when it dissapears, the page is saved. You can click on Alt key & back arrow to get back to the file manager, or you can click on..
File/ then on manager
**********
Now type in the url path to your page in your browser window and pull it up t see if you need to correct anything..
Before you do that..here is how to do a few things.
To save more pages to freeservers do this.
Click on File/new folder/
the command box pops up.
name the new folder web1/click o.k.
You notice all further folders will be in the same area as the first page, along with the graphics and music for thast page.
On the left side of the screen you will see where the new folder named web1 is under the others.
you can also upload and stash things in the
File Box folder.
Click on the line that says web1 and the screen will change to that folder.
Now you are ready to upload your next page to this folder named web1. you can leave the name of the page as it is but only~ 2-3 words.html
therefore the url path of this page will be~
domainname.freeservers.com/web1/nameofpage.html
For each new page make a new folder and name it web2, web3, web4.. etc
Counters~
click the white dot next to the nameofpage.html
when the screen opens/open it all the way.
use the inner scroll bar to scroll all the way to the end of the page. You will see this....
<P ALIGN=Center>
</BODY></HTML>
**************************
paste this code between the two lines.
<ISML TYPE="counter" OPTION=graphic_7seg>
<P ALIGN=Center>
****
it should now look like this...
<P ALIGN=Center>
<ISML TYPE="counter" OPTION=graphic_7seg>
<P ALIGN=Center>
</BODY></HTML>
Go to top/click File/ save/
You can also choose a counter by doing this..
Hit the minus button in the upper right corner of the Manager 2.0 page to scroll the page down to a button on the bottom of your screen. You will see another screen under it.
Look in the upper left corner for the Main menue...
click on~ Work on my Site-
when the page opens..scroll down until you see visitor counters. Go in & copy a counter code, minus down that page & hit the button at the bottom of the screen on the file manager page.
when it comes up, paste in the counter code, & save
You can also put in a guest book by doing the same thing. Dont forget to add the following above and below every code you put in the page.
<P ALIGN=Center>
Music on Your page~
Where you put the html code for your music depends on what kind of music you put on it. If its a midi, then paste the code in right under the Very Top <Body> code at the top of the page.
If it's a Wav~
The code is different so you can put a media player on the page, or use the midi code and no player will show on the page.
Look at the html code and you will know by the graphics & writing on the page where you are at. Drop a line down a couple spaces, and put in your <P ALIGN=Center> Twice...
Now paste in your html code between them. check to make sure the music is named what it was uploaded as. (Two places if you are using the media player code) Don't forget to center the code.
I am putting another work page here where I have several html codes. You can copy them right off the page into the text editor of the file manager.
Also the Return to Link leads to a Web Page Help Room where you will find all kinds of Free Graphic, Music & html web sites.
Work Page~html
codes-music, applets, etc

When your finished, click File/Save
Hold the Alt button and the back arrow to get back to the File manager. Now you are ready to type the url path in your browser and see what you got...
The above directions will get you started in freeservers.com server and get your page made. The rest you can check out at your leisure. They have a lot to offer for your pages.
