Uploading Your Files Using Netscape Composer Version 4.7 Top

To upload files with Netscape Composer use the Publish button. In the Location field type http://yourdomain.com/filename.html this will place the 'filename.html' into your webspace. Don't forget to include your username and password. If you are editing your home page, you should always call that: http://yourdomain.com/index.html.

If you wish to place the file in a sub-directory you must first create that directory with the file manager in your control panel. Then the location would be ftp://yourdomain.com/subdirectory/filename.html.
