1) Go to: START/New Office Document
2) Find the “Web Pages” tab in the window that opens. You may need to click on the “More…” tab and scroll down to the Web Pages folder (Open that one if you need to.)
3) Choose the “Web Page Wizard” and open it. (Word Opens)
4) The Wizard asks you to choose a type of page. For now click on “Personal Home Page” and then click on “Next”.
5) The Wizard asks you to select a style. Try each until you find one you like and then click on “Finish”.
6) Before you edit the page, please save it to a new folder on your desktop (name the folder “Web page” and name the file “index”).
7) Now edit the page.
a. For now, leave all the blue links under “Contents” and the “Back to top” links in each section alone.
b. Change the Heading and Subheading and then scroll down and add whatever information you like.
c. When you get to the “Hot List” and the “Electronic mail address” I’ll show you how to insert them and make them active.
8) You can check how your page will look on the Web at any point by using the “Web Page Preview” selection under the File Menu.
9) You can insert graphics. For now, use some of the graphics you can find in the “Gif’s and Stuff” folder in the Staff directory on the Home directory on the EHS server. Word will automatically copy the graphics files to your “Web page” folder on your desktop.
1) Create a new folder on your desktop and call it something like “Web page”
2) Open a new blank document in Word and immediately save it to the “Web page” folder on your desktop using the Save as HTML command.
3) When you save your new blank document as HTML, call it index (This is the default name a browser like Internet Explorer or Netscape looks for when it tries to access your page).
4) Now use Word to create and edit your page. You are editing in HTML format and the tool bars are a bit different than you may be used to but it isn’t hard to figure it all out.
5) When you are ready to add links I’ll show you how.
6) You can check how your page will look on the Web at any point by using the “Web Page Preview” selection under the File Menu.
7) When you are done save your work and close Word.
1) Open FirstClass.
2) Look at your “Desktop” within FirstClass. You may see a folder labeled “Home Page”. If you do not hold down the “Ctrl” key and type the number “4”. This should create the folder for you.
3) Now double-click on the “Home Page” folder and it should open.
4) Move windows around so you can see your “Web Page” folder. Open it as well and drag all of the files you find in “Web Page” folder into the open “Home Page” folder from FirstClass.
That’s it. Your page will now be available at the following URL (web address):
http://fc.sau16.k12.nh.us/~your FirstClass login name
Here is the URL to a sample page I created in about 15 minutes. I swear this was the first time I had done it this way and it wasn’t hard.
http://fc.sau16.k12.nh.us/~rpratt
5) Now just email me that you have a page and I’ll link to it from our ever-growing EHS website.
6) You can change your page any time by opening Word first and then use the File/Open command to open your index file from your “ Web Page” folder. (it is okay to store it somewhere other than on your desktop if you wish.)
7) To update your page online you just have to delete the files from you “Home Page “ folder and recopy whatever Word has put into your “ Web page” folder into your “Home Page” folder on FirstClass.
