Creating Rollovers in Dreamweaver




How to get your own web space and .com


- check out namesecure for domain names

- URL Grabber (domain forwarding)

* there are a lot of places to purchase web space up on the internet.

- I use Richmond Internet Technology but a quick web search will uncover many other possibilities.


To get your files up on the web you need a FTP program

* FTP = File Transfer Protocol

- The FTP program can connect your computer to a server so you can copy your files onto the server for distribution on the web.
*For Mac I like Fetch. On the PC try CuteFTP.




Work on Project!
