Guidelines for publishing Student Web Pages

Take a moment to review The SAU Web Policy. It is the responsiblity of all students to be familiar with the requirements of the policy.

Following the simple guidelines below will enable you to get your pages on the Web quickly.
Report web publishing problems to Webmaster (webmaster@arbor.edu or x1647), and please be nice. :-)

  1. Make sure the official SAU disclaimer for personal web pages is on your home page. You can get your copy of the personal web page disclaimer here.
    Student Organizations can get the disclaimer for organization pages here.

  2. Make sure your pages comply with the University's community standards and technology acceptable use policy.

  3. Use no spaces in the file name. Spaces in your file name will prevent your web page from being viewed on the web. Note the examples below.

    Bad file name my home page .htm
    Good file name my_home_page.htm

  4. Save your web pages directly to your G: drive (or H: drive). (This is very important). If you save your web pages to F:\pub_html\ your files will not be viewable on the web. Note the examples below.

    Bad Save As F:\pub_html\myhomepage .htm
    Good Save As H:\myhomepage.htm

  5. Your top level page (first page, entry page) must be named index.htm otherwise it will not be displayed automatically. Netscape automatically looks for an entry page named index.htm (or index.html). The URL http://www.arbor.edu/~qw9876 will automatically display qw9876t's entry page named index.htm
