Internet Assignment

OverviewThis assignment combines many of the

skills you have been learning all semester. Microsoft Word Microsoft Excel Microsoft PowerPoint

It also involves learning a new set of skills related to web page development file transfer web page hosting

Overview (continued)

During the next week you will be working to create the necessary web page documents.

Next week you will work on getting these materials posted to your own web account.

Everything you need to do the first part of the assignment is contained in your lab manual.

HTML

Hypertext Markup LanguageUsed to format web pagesNot a real programming languageUses symbols called tags to mark certain

areas of the document for particular formats. Tags mark beginning and ending.

Example: <b> Makes this line bold-face type </b>

HTML continued

HTML code can be written in any text editor or in a word processor and saved as text.

Many web page authoring tools generate HTML code automatically Adobe PageMill, Microsoft FrontPage

Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint also can generate html files.

Web publishing

Hypertext markup language (html) uses ‘tags’ to format data tags allow page formatting and the

inclusion of images can be seen from the View->Source menu

Web page authoring software automatically produces html code to format the web page.

Your assignment and html

The reason you do a “Save As HTML” on your Word and PowerPoint files is to create a version of them that is in HTML format.

These are web documents.Watch out for PowerPoint however, it saves

each of your slides, each image, and each notes page as separate files!

All of these have to be transferred for your web page to run them.

File transfer from PC to UNIX

The tricky part explainedCreating the documents is relatively easy,

the book explains that well.The rest of the assignment is tricky

transferring files from PC to bulldog getting on your bulldog unix account learning a few simple unix commands navigating the file hierarchy to the web

subdirectory setting file permissions making other changes to the files

Your UNIX account

Bulldog is UMD’s mainframe computerIt houses all of your email through your

UMD account (example: schm0013)First, let’s get on your account and see

how it is set up.Your TA will show you how to open up a

connection to bulldog through UMDNET (telnet communications software)

Sun OS 5.6login:

Sun OS 5.6login: schm0013

Sun OS 5.6

Enter terminal type. <RETURN> for default (VT220)[Z)enith, S)un, X)term, W)yse, V)t100]

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1%

This is the UNIX prompt

Some simple UNIX commands

ls - lists your files and directoriescd - changes directoriespwd - print working directorypico - launches the pico editorchmod - changes the mode of access of a

filebye - gets you out of your UNIX account

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1% lsMail wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu2%

You probably have only a fewfile and/or subdirectories

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1% lsMail wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu2% cd wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu3%

Drop down into your websubdirectory

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1% lsMail wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu2% cd wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu3% lsbulldog.d.umn.edu4%

If you list the files in your wwwdirectory there won’t be any...yet.

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1% lsMail wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu2% cd wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu3% lsbulldog.d.umn.edu4% bye

Type ‘bye’ to leave your account

Your account signs offand is gone.

The structure of UNIX accounts

bulldog.d.umn.edu

At the root of the file hierarchyis the bulldog computer.


bulldog.d.umn.edu

ande0213 jone0321 schm0013 swen0002

The computer hosts an accountfor every [email protected]


bulldog.d.umn.edu


Within each student accountthere is a web subdirectorycalled www. After logging on to your accountyou must cd www to get downinto it.

www


bulldog.d.umn.edu


All your web files mustbe transferred over toyour web subdirectory.

www

FTP

File Transfer ProtocolUsed to transfer a file from one computer

to anotherWe will use this program to send files

from the PC’s in lab to the unix mainframe on which our web pages are built

works with telnet to access remote computers

WS_FTP program

Result of WS_FTP

After all your files are transferred over to your web subdirectory you can log onto your account, go down into it and list them.

The result should look something like the following:

Sun OS 5.6



bulldog.d.umn.edu1% cd wwwbulldog.d.umn.edu2%


bulldog.d.umn.edu


After entering your accountyou will want to drop downinto the www directory.

If you ever wonder where youare you can use the pwd commandto tell you what directory you arein.

Let’s list our files, just to makesure.

File permissions

In order to be seen by the outside world, all files in your www directory and it’s various subdirectories must be made ‘public’.

We do this with the chmod 644 commandIn addition, all subdirectories in the www

directory must be given a special designator of public access: chmod 755

You only need to set these permissions once. You do not need to do the chmod stuff every time you log onto your account.
