How to upload your files to the
Internet using FTP
What
is FTP
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol.
A protocol is a language (a set of rules) that enables computers
to speak to one another. FTP is used to make files and folders
available for transfer over the Internet. FTP uses the Internet,
but is not the Web. You will use FTP to move your folders
and HTML files from your computer or zip disk to the server
so that your files are online and can be viewed on the Web.
There are many ways to FTP your files
to the server.
FTP
using a browser
Some networks allow your browser to FTP your files directly onto its server.
FTP
using WS-FTP software
If you cannot upload from your browser,
another way to FTP your files is to use a piece of software
called WS-FTP.
FTP
using Dreamweaver
Once we start using Dreamweaver, you
can use the FTP capabilities that are built into Dreamweaver.
See the section on how to manage a site and set up ftp
in the Dreamweaver section
for more details.
