• Personal copies can be purchased at the U-M Computer Showcase.

Publishing Your Webpage

Your UMich public webspace is found in your IFS space. From the main folder of your IFS space, navigate to /Public/html/. This is your main website folder, and if you enter

http://www-personal.umich.edu/~your-uniqname/

into the location bar in your browser, then you will be taken to the file "index.html" or "index.htm" in your /Public/html/ folder. The filenames "index.html" and "index.htm" are reserved for the main page in a directory - if you type in the location of a folder in the location bar, by default the server will send you to the index HTML file in that directory.

CSS styles are a powerful way to manage the appearance of your website. The Knowledge Navigation Center has created an example of a few of the things that can be done with CSS, which is available at http://www.lib.umich.edu/knc/classes/CSS/.
