OUTCOME
A File Explorer window will open to your web space.
You can publish your website by dropping your files into this folder. Any files or folders placed in the "myweb" folder will be readable over the web by anyone. You can create/edit files here to modify your website.
CAUTION: Any files you delete from here will be unrecoverable.
The name of the home page required is one of the following:
- index.php
- index.asp
- index.aspx
- index.htm
- index.html
- default.php
- default.asp
- default.aspx
- default.htm
- default.html
- home.php
- home.asp
- home.aspx
- home.htm
- home.html
The web server will look for the file names in the order listed above. The file name is case sensitive. If you rename your home page file to one of these file names, then the page should show up when you go to your website's URL at either https://myweb.ttu.edu/your_eRaider_username or https://www.myweb.ttu.edu/your_eRaider_username. Be sure that you have your home page in the root directory of your account and not in a sub-folder.
