The best tool for uploading and then working on your web pages is a FTP program. If you don't have one, you can download one from our ftp server. (follow the Windows or Mac information below) When you have uploaded the files, send email to support@hevanet.com with a list of all of the web pages that you have uploaded and we will set up your web space. You will be able to edit your pages after the initial setup.

TIP -- You can use long filenames for your web files, but don't use any spaces in the name. Although Windows 95 allows spaces, some browsers do not handle them well. 

Windows 95 98 - Upload Web Page
You can download FTP Explorer from our ftp server by connecting your Web browser to http://www.hevanet.com/tech/ftpx1010.zip then choose Save to Disk to download the file. Unzip the file in a temporary directory and run the Setup.exe file to install the program. (if you do not have an unzipping program, download WinZip, a very good zip utility). When you run FTP Explorer for the first time, you'll be asked for some information. Fill out the dialogue box as shown. (substitute your login name for "test").

Substitute your Hevanet login name and password in the boxes above. After you Connect, you will be in your Hevanet Home directory. To upload your files, simply drag and drop them from your Folder on your PC into the window in FTP Explorer. Or click the UP arrow on the Toolbar and choose the files you wish to upload.

Don't forget to send an e-mail to support@hevanet.com with a list of all of the web pages and files that you uploaded. 

After you have uploaded you pages and notified us, we will create a Web directory and move your files to it. We will email you back a confirmation and what the path (URL) to your pages will be. This will be the address you can give out to others so they can find your pages. You will also get the new path to your own web directory so you can upload and make changes on your own as often as you like. This is how FTP Explorer Connect  dialogue should be configured after your directory is set up. Please note the change in the Initial Path box. Substitute "test" with your Hevanet login name.

Once your web directory is set up, you do not need to inform us of any changes you make to your web pages. Have fun!
 

Mac - Upload Web Page

If you don't have Fetch, you can download it from www.mac.org Use the "fetch" FTP program to transfer web pages. Connect to ftp.hevanet.com using your login and password and leave the starting directory blank. This will connect you to your home directory. Use the put button to upload the pages. Don't forget to send an e-mail to support@hevanet.com with a list of all of the web pages that you uploaded.

Ebay Auctions

Many users would like to upload some pictures for one of the Online Auction services. (Ebay, Ubid, etc.) You do not need to have any actual web pages for this, but the steps are very much the same. First, upload your pictures to your "home" directory and send us an email. We'll create your web space, copy your picture to it and turn it over to you.

When asked for the URL to your picture, the format will follow this example:

http://www.hevanet.com/username/picture01.jpg

The username will be your Hevanet login name and the picture01.jpg is of course your particular picture file. (It does not have to be named picture01.jpg)

Please review your picture files and see if there are some compression settings that will reduce the file size without compromising image quality.  Keep in mind that those trying to view the images require 1 minute for every 100K when using a 28.8 modem.

Good luck on your Auction!
