How to print out a Web page: While you are looking at a Web page, look across the top of your Web browser. You should see a button called PRINT. Just hit this button.
OR, you can cut and paste text from a Web page into a word processing program. While looking at the Web page, move your mouse over the text you want to copy, hold in the mouse button and drag until all the text you want is highlighted. Then, go to the very top of yor computer screen and under the EDIT menu, select COPY. Next, open up a word processing program, go to the EDIT menu and click PASTE. The text should appear just fine.
Cutting and pasting text can be better if you only want a little bit of what is on a Web page, or if the Web page has lots of graphics that will take a long time to print out.
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. It is the way that Web pages come alive! After you have created them on your home computer, you FTP them to the server at Montana State University in Bozeman, and then we all can see what you have created.
In order to FTP something to a server, you need to have the server's specifications and also a password. That keeps people from going in and changing other people's pages.
You must be enrolled in the Webmasters project and verified as a member before receiving this information.
If you know what you are doing and are ready to get these specifications and password, e-mail Suzi with your name, county, 4-H club and phone number, and I will send this information to you.
You do need to have some FTP software to do this process. If you are using a Macintosh computer, you will probably use an FTP program called Fetch. If you are using an IBM-compatible computer, you will probably use a software program called WSFTP.
