Step by Step Process for FTP - File Transfer Protocol

Your html web pages and your graphics files will need to be uploaded from your computer to the Development Server which is called YATECHCITY.

The web URL for that server is http://yatechcity .

To upload your files to that site you will need to open an application called Filezilla.

The process for uploading your web pages is below.

1. Open Filezilla which is the FTP program that we use to upload files. You should zee the Icon for it on the desktop. Double click on it to open it.
   
   
2. Double click on the yellow folder (directory). Keep clicking until you see your H drive.
   
   
   
   
3. Double click on your H Drive.
   
   
   
   
   
4. Then double click on your NAMED directory. For example, Mr. Lamothe's named directory is called rlamothe.
   
   
   
   
5. Click on the Site Manager Icon. See red arrow in picture below.

   Double click on the web file that you want to UPLOAD to the YA Techcity Server, for example, your index.html file.
   That will upload your file to the web server.
   
   
   
8. If you have already uploaded the file before, a window will pop up asking if you want to REPLACE the file. Since you have made changes to the file, click OK.
