FTP is about as simple as it gets. A lot of programs such as dreamweaver etc support automatic FTP uploading/syncing from within their website manager facilities, and can be quite good. The only other thing I can think of off the top of my head are frontpage web extensions, but I'm not sure if they support uploading, and frontpage *cough* sucks like there's no tomorrow *cough* Unless of course you're wanting some kind of web form where the student selects there files and presses 'upload' on the page and it does it for them? (could then edit the page HTML in a textbox on another page or something) This could be quite good and it would be very simple to write some PHP or other scripts to do so. It's not, however, nearly as good or flexible as FTP. -----Original Message----- From: Terry Cole [mailto:terry(a)cole.gen.nz] Sent: Wednesday, 18 June 2003 5:11 p.m. To: Wlug; Linux-Users Cant Subject: [wlug] student web hosting Can anyone give me any help, please. The so called "free" web hosting seem to have inappropriate advertising, this sometimes appears after you have set up your web pages. I would like some of my students to be able to publish their web pages on the net, but would like a simple way of uploading and editing their own work. I don't want to FTP in and I would like them to be able to do this from the class as well as home. Are there any scripts out there that could help me in setting this up. I could then run them from our own domain.
