Standards for Web Pages under Apache

  • The home page name must be index.html. Note that the extension must be .html and not .htm.
  • Also note that the name is case sensitive.
  • The home page must be in the public_html directory of your account. This is so that your site can be accessed via http://www.cs.scranton.edu/~yourUserID where, of course, yourUserID is your actual username.
  • Your username above is case sensitive.
  • All page names should end in the extension .html (except for PHP pages and other exceptions that we will learn later).
  • Note that .html above is case sensitive
  • All images should have their names end in .gif or .jpg as appropriate.
  • FOR THE LAST TIME, (I'm sure that you appreciate this ) .gif and .jpg above are CASE sEnSiTiVe.
