Site Management
So you can access your web pages, now what? You need
to make some decisions. How are you going to do the
updating? Are you going to learn HTML and write all
the code yourself or will you learn Dreamweaver? Dreamweaver
is an HTML editor that writes all the code for you.
This whole site was written using Dreamweaver. It
is available for free on the Application Server and
CIS Training does offer classes on how to use it.
Images
Most people like to put images and photos into their
web pages to make them more attractive. Your safest
bet for graphics is to always either create or photograph
the image yourself. Never simply copy an image from
the web and use it on your web site without the owner's
permission. A Brown Image Gallery does exist for your
use, and it is growing and being updated constantly.
Find the images in our Gallery.
Use This
Site
This site can be an excellent resource for you. The
toolkit has things for you like a page counter, explanation
on how to password protect web pages, a random image
generator and much more! The Publishing Help section
has information for you from start to finish. Use
the "creating pages" section to read more
about HTML vs XHTML, what meta tags are for, using
cascading style sheets and server side includes and
webmaster's best practices. The whole section is a
wealth of knowledge. Come to publisher forums. Many
campus webmasters meet the first Tuesday of each month
on the 2nd floor of the CIT at noon and discuss current
issues. Click the Publisher Forum button to find out
the next topic. You can also learn more about the
policies regarding web use and additional topics in
information security.
