Hello - what do I do next?
I just uploaded approximately 20 files. The front page was index.html. I had earlier tried some simple tests to see if I could get a page published. Approximately 5 files called "homer" and some other junk names were posted. Now when I went to validate using a 'free' validater it only looks at the earlier stuff I uploaded.

I used Netscapes Composer to write all my pages. The local browser works fine. The bugs are minimal and I can navigate without problem.

How do I validate the real web page. This is my virgin effort and somethings my mother just didn't tell me if you understand my predicament.

Hopw do I run the site I just uploaded?

Finally, when he pages were loading from my local site the graphic were erased from the current page being uploaded. Is this right?

You have forgotten to upload the index.html page and the graphic images.
Validate your pages: http://validator.w3.org/

Thank you much for the assist. I've got the major problems resolved, yet I have a graphics link problem to work out, like the images don't appear!. Something dumb, I suppose. But m files are in the server! Yes!!

I have been using 'HTML for Dummies' that seems to be enough for me after I discovered Netscape's "Composer" which has all the HTML work hidden.

Are 'frames' still popular? I recollect that they were being 'phased out'.

My directory structure is the_web/graphics(with files)/using files/(more graphics).
I uploaded the Graphics dierectory with one fell swoop. Something didn't happen!

The web page is at (but I am not bragging yet, so don't quote me.):
www.frontiernet.net/~mgh1/
Thanx again.:)

Check the path to your images are correct and that they are on the server.

Frames can still be used , but are discouraged due to accessability problems.
