How to Transfer Your HTML Files for Your Personal Web Page for Mac Users - Anarchie

Open Anarchie. If this is the first time using Anarchie, you'll be asked to configure settings.

Under the FTP menu, select "Get" or "FTP". Fill in IP address Username: your_login Password: your_password Then hit the List button

Now you can upload your HTML and GIF files to your www directory. Name your home page "index.html" so it will load by default. If you are using System 7.5 or later, you can just drag files from your own desktop right into the Anarchie window, into your www directory. Otherwise, use the "Put" command (also under the FTP menu)

Important notes about file naming conventions: All files names are case-sensitive under Unix. Index.html is NOT the same as index.html. Standard convention is to use all lowercase file names. All HTML files must have the extension ".html" or ".htm" at the end for them to work. Also, if you are authoring on your Mac locally, remember not to use spaces in file or folder names--UNIX can't handle that, so it would not work once you transfer the files.
