How do I create sub-directories?
When making a sub directory you should use the make
directory "MkDir" function key located on your FTP
program. Open up that directory then place all files
that need to go in there.
How do I get my page to load automatically?
(UNIX)
You must name your main loading file "index.html".
Be sure to name everything in lowercase, NOT "index.htmL".
Also, this file must be located in your "public_html"
directory.
How do I update my web pages?
You can create and maintain your web pages, images,
and scripts locally and upload them to the web server
at your leisure via FTP. You can overwrite existing
files or transfer a new file.
How do I write HTML/create a website?
There are a large number of documents and programs
on the web to help you write HTML.* * We can
not help you write HTML * *. Try these listings
on Yahoo for places to get started:
The HTML page is garbled. What's wrong?
It is important to remember to send HTML (text)
in ASCII mode and all image-format files in Binary.
In addition, if you are using Word or some other
text-editor locally for writing HTML, be sure to
save the file as text only , not a .doc file, for
example. One should notice that files in DOS can
only be saved with a three-letter .htm extension.
After FTPing, these files may be renamed (button)
to include the .html extension. All of this is basic,
but results in a majority of the FTP errors!
What should I do if denied access via
FTP or to "stats"?
Be sure to read the FTP tutorial that comes with
the FTP software. If you still have trouble, send
email to info@metanethosting.com
explaining the problem in detail. Be sure to include
either your user id and domain name as well as the
current account password.
