Back to business...<br />

It’s another homework assignment for you (check each item as you do it):<br />

® Make sure you know where your root folder is on the server at<br />

your hosting company.<br />

® Figure out the best way (and the best tool to use) to transfer<br />

files from your computer to the server.<br />

® For now, go ahead and transfer the Starbuzz “index.html” and<br />

“mission.html” files to the root folder of the server.<br />

That’s the end of the detour and we’re back on the Web<br />

superhighway. At this point you should have the two<br />

Starbuzz pages, “index.html” and “mission.html”, sitting<br />

under your root folder on a server (or if not, you’re at least<br />

following along).<br />

After all this work, wouldn’t it be satisfying to<br />

make your browser retrieve those pages over<br />

the Internet and display them for you? Let’s<br />

figure out the right address to type into your<br />

browser...<br />

All Web page addresses<br />

start <strong>with</strong> this, right?<br />

We’ll look into what http<br />

means in a sec.<br />

End of Web Detour<br />

http:// www.starbuzzcoffee.com / index.html<br />

Here’s the Web site name.<br />

For the root folder<br />

we just use “/”.<br />

And here’s the<br />

page file name.<br />
