Experimental Social Psychology

In order to get your web page "online" and accessible to the rest of the world, you need to install it onto Southwestern's server.

There is a program, /usr/local/bin/wwwsetup, that will create the directory and change the permissions as needed. Most people need only type wwwsetup at the ralph command prompt to run it.

The directory where the web pages MUST reside is

/home/_loginname_/public_html

(or a subdirectory thereof) which is created by wwwsetup. The main page must be called index.html. All html pages must have the suffix .html, and images must be either .gif or.jpeg. [No cgi-bin programs can be run from inside personal web sites.]

The student's URL will be

http://www.southwestern.edu/~_loginname_

Copy pages from a personal computer using WS-FTP (PC) or Fetch (Mac) to

/home/_loginname_/public_html.

All files must have permission in order to be read and understood by the server. Thus, after the file is put into the public_html directory, it is important to type the following command at the ralph prompt

publish

(to make every file in the directory readable by the web server)
