These instructions also apply if your system is running the FastTrack server but you choose to author HTML documents in a directory other than public_html.

  2. Copy your files into your assigned directory on the Web server.

    Make sure you keep all subdirectories intact when you copy them; otherwise your HTML document may not be able to follow links.

    For example, say your HTML document (mydoc.html) is in your project root directory and the images to which it links are in the images subdirectory. Your administrator tells you to put your document in the /usr/netsite-docs/joe directory. You must copy your files onto the server so that /usr/netsite-docs/joe contains two items: the file mydoc.html and the directory images and its contents.
