CPST WebServer
CPST WebServe is the home for all Student WebSites developed this semester.

The Web Address ( URL ) of CPST WebServer is cpst.tuland.edu. All students registered in the current semester for CPST-2400-10 should already have space available on the CPST WebServer. This can easly be verified by typing your URL in a WebBrowser. What is your URL? It is constructed like this?

http://cpst.tulane.edu/ -- the computer name of CPST WebServer

~yname/ -- your Tulane user ID (same as your eMail name)

cpst240010/ -- folder where all your assignment WebSites will live this semester

index.html -- the name of some WebPage (in this case index.html

For Tulane user ID "gnorth", a complete URL to the index page will look like this

http://cpst.tulane.edu/~gnorth/cpst240010/index.html

click on it, see what you see?

all the forward slashes "/" are just the punctuation that divides the parts of a URL.

George North is your instructor, his Tulane eMail name is gnorth.

Here is the URL for another WebPage ...

http://cpst.tulane.edu/~gnorth/cpst240010/helloWorld.html

Every assignment WebPage will have it own unique URL

When you turn-in assignments, it is a URL just like the one above that you will paste into an eMail message to send to me, your instructor.

Using my WebBrowser, I type the URL for your CPST WebServer HomePage ... which is http://cpst.tulane.edu/~yname/index.html, keep in mind that yname is your Tulane user ID (same as your eMail name) -- the WebPage I will see will look like this:


Please note ...
