Publishing
with Netscape 7.1
The Publish Page - Publish tab lets you specify where you want
to publish a document. These settings apply to the current document.
If you are not already viewing the Publish Page - Publish tab,
follow these steps:
1. Open the File menu and choose Publish
As. The Publish Page dialog box appears.
2. Click the Publish tab.
- Site Name: Lists all the publishing
sites you've created, so you can choose the site that you want
to publish to. To create a new site, click New Site.
- Page Title: Specifies the document's
page title as it appears in the browser window's title bar when
you view the page in the browser. The document's page title also
appears in your list of bookmarks if you bookmark the page.
- Filename: Specifies the document's
filename. Make sure you include the .html or .htm extension in
the filename.
Warning: If a file on the remote site
you're publishing to has the same filename as one you're uploading,
the newly uploaded file will replace the existing one. You will
not be asked to confirm the action.
- Site subdirectory for this page: If you leave this blank, Composer
publishes the page to the main (root) publishing directory at
this site.
- If you want to publish the page to a remote subdirectory that
resides underneath the main publishing directory at this site,
enter the name of the subdirectory or choose it from the list.
Composer keeps track of the locations you type here, so you can
select from a list of remote locations you've previously used.
Keep in mind that subdirectory names are case-sensitive.
Note: The site subdirectory you choose must already
exist at the remote server.
Include images and other files: If checked, Composer publishes any
images and other files referenced by this page. You can choose to
publish these files to the same location as the page, or else you
can choose to publish these files into a remote subdirectory that
exists underneath the main publishing directory.
Tip: To create remote subdirectories or delete
published pages or images, you must use an FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
program.]
Publish Page - Settings
The Publish Page - Settings tab
lets you specify your login information for the remote publishing
site, as well as the publishing settings for the remote site. These
settings apply to the current document and any other files you publish
to this location.
If you are not already viewing the Publish Page - Settings tab,
follow these steps:
1. Open the File menu and choose Publish
As. The Publish Page dialog box appears.
2. Click the Settings tab.
- Site Name: Specifies the nickname you want
to use for this publishing site. Enter a short name that will
help you identify this publishing site.
- Publishing address: Specifies the complete
URL. In the example above, costarica is the server name, and this
MUST be included in the URL. The publishing address specifies
the location where documents are published (uploaded). If you
are Hosted on the costa rica server, type exactly what you see
in the above dialog box, replacing 'domain.com' with YOUR domain
name that is Hosted on our network.
- HTTP address of your home page: Specifies the
complete address of your publishing home directory. This is the
web address of the home page at your web site. Do not include
a filename or subdirectory as part of the URL. This URL must always
begin with http://.
- User name: This is the username assigned to
your Hosting account. Check you Server Configurations if you are
not sure what your User name is.
- Password: Specifies the password for your user
name. This is also indicated in your server configurations email
(unless you have logged into the Hosting control manager and changed
the password)
- Save Password: Select this to encrypt and
save your password securely using Password Manager so that you
don't have to enter it each time you publish pages at this site.
