You can use Netscape or Internet Explorer to view your Portfolio. Once pages are saved to your WWW folder they are visible to anyone who knows the URL of your pages. In practice, however, it makes sense to add your name to the campus catalog of web pages if you want it to be read. Registering your web page on the College server can be delayed until you are ready to have your page seen by others.

About creating and saving Web pages: There are two computers involved in making Web pages: the computer in front of you and the server. You can create and edit your pages anywhere but when finished, they must be moved to your network directory. When working on a networked campus computer you can work on your pages and save them directly to your WWW folder in your network directory (if you have to move files using FTP or Email the name of the server is "jade.saintmarys.edu,") so the rest of the world can see them via the Internet.

You control whether each subsequent page is visible by linking to it from your home page or not. The simplest way of not displaying pages that are not finished is simply to provide no link to these pages from your home page; the simplest way of publishing them, is to create a link to the page from your home page.

On-line viewing:

1. Open Netscape Navigator (not the page composer but the browser).
2. In the "Location" box at the top of the screen, type http://www.saintmarys.edu/~your-userid/
   and press return.
3. This should bring your Web Page up on the screen. If the message "404 Not Found" appears, you probably have not uploaded the pages correctly, or named it something other than "index.html" and should see the "troubleshooting" link or the Instructional Technology Resource Center for more instructions.
4. Click the underlined text to follow links and move to other pages. Click the "Back" button in the upper left corner of the page to go back one page at a time.
