![]() this weeks labbyI just want to comfirm that there is no lab due this week. Only because I got a virus on Wenesday that wiped out everything that was in "My Documents". I know I can get everything off the server but im having internet connection issues (not sure if its my just my computer or our ISP). from IP address 131.118.85.202 |
![]() "Ouch!" - at least you are in luck with COSC120. Nothing is due Friday, BUT...by Anonymousa two week lab means that I expect you to put in about 6 hours work, in this case searching the Web for more resources and classifying them as resources, references, indexes, and any other category that might suit you. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Untitledby PattyTony, I looked at lab8, my graphics are on there through composer. I fixed lab8b, even though in the directions it says nothing about links for the mailing lists. from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() Fixed workby PattyTony, I think I have everything fixed on my pages, can you let me know if there's something wrong, I think if I do anymore this evening I'm just going to make mistakes-wiped out. Thanks for your help from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() uploadedby PattyTony I got my account (personal.frostburg) to work at my house, so I got everything uploaded. And fixed a couple of the other pages w/ pictures and colors. from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() Great, what did you do differently?by TonyGetting access CAN'T be accidental. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Stupid mistakeby PattyTony, I did a stupid thing, right as I was getting ready to hand in my test, I changed one of my answers #41, for some reason domain name kept coming to me but I had file directory, which after looking at my notes was right, I always second guess my self, I know I need to stop, but that's why that one is wrong, I shouldn't of changed it. from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() Well, you'll have another chance on the rework.by Tony... from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() list and links for lab8by PattyDo we make a list and add links to our newsgroups also?? from IP address 131.118.85.202 |
![]() Yes, the newsgroup name should be a link to that newsgroupby Tony... from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Lab 7by Tammy MarpleHello Tony, I just wanted to let you know that I have my Lab 7 saved on a floppy. I had trouble publishing from my computer. I hope that I can please have enough time after the test tomorrow to publish this lab. I have been sick and I am going to the doctor this evening. I am sorry for this trouble. Thank-you, Tammy from IP address 70.109.71.17 |
![]() lab7by PattyTracy, everything worked even after I uploaded it to my personal page. I'm going to see if I can fix it before I come in today. from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() look for resourcesby PattySo basically we look for resources for our major, like web sites and then link them on our page, so who ever wants to they can open them up and see whats there? Would lesson plans be ak also? Or information about our major, like mine is early childhood. from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() You got it. They are YOUR resources; of course others can access them, but...by Tonythey are there for you to use them - from anywhere in the world that you have Internet access. Therefore, you can put ANYTHING on your project pages, well anything that is relevant to your major. Things like pets, hobbies, friends, etc. should go on your home page or its subpages; your project pages should all relate to your major. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Web Resources?by PattyWhat are web resources?? Anyone from IP address 71.168.44.166 |
![]() Web resources are Web pages in which you are interested....by TonyFor your project they are Web pages that contain info on your major. Later, we will distinguish two subtypes of Web resources, "indexes" and "references". from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Frustrations in Publishing (Frostburg Server)by RachelI am having the worst problems with using the new Frostburg Server. I create, update, and save my web pages and everytime I think I had published them they never seem to show up when click on the link. I keep getting the message: "Error 404: File not found" It is getting annoying because I feel like even when I get the assignments done, they never show up. I have gone back and checked the file names, retyped stuff, and it seems like nothing works. Only once in a while, does a linked page ever actually show up on my site and when it does it seems like a miracle and not because of anything I have done. Any ideas or suggestions on how I can get past this problem? from IP address 131.118.85.202 |
![]() One thing for sure, the file name and your link to that file are NOT the same.by TonyThe simple insurance for making a Web page function properly is to (1) make it work on your computer or floppy then (2) upload every file EXACTLY as they are on your computer. This means that all files have to be exactly is the same "relative" location, i.e. in the same folders. If you add a graphic to a Web page you must not only upload the updated Web page but the graphic file as well. My best tip is to "avoid typing" whenever possible, i.e. when linking always browse to the file and select it or "copy 'n paste" links. (Typos are the origin of most "file not found" errors.) If you continue to have problems, come to my office hours or during class period. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Not feeling well!by TammyTony, I just wanted to let you know that I have had the flu and have not felt good. I am going to work on Lab 6 during our class time tomorrow. Thanks, Tammy from IP address 70.109.70.143 |
![]() I empathize. I had the flu a couple of weeks ago; didn't feel like doing anything, and...by TonyI didn't do anything very well. It's great to get over it and feel "human" again! from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Question about Lab 6 turn inby Steve FQuick question, all we do for lab6 is do what it is required and then post it on our websites, correct? Also I downloaded a great add-on for anyone using firefox, it's called FireFTP. It allows you to upload your web pages right through Firefox. I like it because its simple and you can easily go from the FireFTP tab to a tab with your web page to check if anything is out of place right after it is finished. from IP address 71.61.229.31 |
![]() Yes, all you are required to do (in any lab) is what is specified in the instructions...by TonyThanks for tip on FireFTP. You can use any FTP client, but I want everyone to understand that they are using a different client-server protocol, i.e. using a browser might "cloud" the idea that HTTP and FTP are two distinct services. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Tonyby PattyTony, I'm sick right now, I'm having problems with my asthma, I'm going back to the doctors today again, I'm hoping to make it in to work on lab 6 and get help if needed. from IP address 71.168.36.14 |
![]() I empathize. I have had asthma all my life - no fun. Hope you feel better.by Tony... from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() For Meganby PattyDon't feel bad, I've been having problems with that web page also, I have part of my link up my personal web page, but it won't let me back on to it to try to fix my link, it keeps denying my password, so I only have half of it done. Are we having fun yet!!! from IP address 70.16.161.15 |
![]() See me during class time and we'll sort this out.by Tony... from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() Still not letting me create a web page!byI contacted the web page manager and he still has not gotten back to me, so unfortunatley I can't do the assignment. I would if I could, Theres just nothing that I could turn in. Tony- if you would like to meet with me and tryto figure out what the problem is I would really appreciate it, also I really hope I do not get a late penalty on this due to the fact that I havent hard back from the webpage manager. I hope to talk to you soon! ~Megan Long from IP address 131.118.66.61 |
![]() Lab 5by TammyTony, Do we still need to turn in the rest of Lab 5 on Monday or can we wait until Tuesday when we meet? I also have made the corrections to my Lab 4. Thanks, Tammy from IP address 69.72.71.167 |
![]() Always turn in labs on time. Incompletes are better than late submissions.by TonyIncompletes show you made the effort, and, consequently, fulfilled your Promise to meet my minimum expectations; late submissions don't tell me anything other than you did not meet your deadline. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() See ya Tues.by PattyI guess I'll see ya Tues. around 3:30 then. from IP address 70.16.161.15 |
![]() Lab 5by TammyHello Tony, I am also still having problems with Lab 5. I can not publish any of my information. I would really like to meet with you also. Thanks, Tammy from IP address 208.103.132.162 |
![]() OK, I'm available during office hours as well as class time.by Tony... from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
![]() meet after breakby PattyTony do you think it would be a good idea for our class to meet after break( or for just the ones who need and want help), since there are a couple of us still having problems with this lab 5?? from IP address 70.16.161.15 |
![]() Of course, I am available during any class period, but attendance is not required except..by Tonyfor assessments and project presentations. I will not present any new material, so those who do not attend will not miss anything. from IP address 71.61.213.220 |
