introduction

Within your public_html folder, create your home page. All home pages are named
"index.html". That is, when you enter a Web address in your browser, the default
Web page that appears is actually named index.html. In the following steps,
you will open a file in Pico, a text-based editor that you can use to create HTML files.

Before trying the following steps, be sure that you have already
created a public_html folder. For the
following steps, you need to already be logged

steps

opening a new HTML file in pico
- At the gamera prompt, type "cd public_html" to open the public_html folder,
and press Enter.
- Type "pico index.html", and press Enter.
A blank, unsaved HTML file named "index.html" will open in Pico.
NOTE You can replace the file name "index.html" with any file name. This other file could
be a new file that you are creating, or a file that already exists in the public_html folder.
Essentially this step is for opening existing files or opening new files in Pico.
creating the foundation of the index.html file
Once in Pico, begin building your Web page. To see what the standard HTML tags are,
view the pico-index image.
exiting pico and saving the index.html file
- To exit Pico and save the file, press CTRL and X simultaneously.
- When prompted, press Y.
- When prompted, press Enter.
You are now back at the gamera prompt.
