Tools and information useful for creating and maintaining web pages in the CSE Web.
"Standard" CSE Look & Feel
- The Orothodox Web Content
Tool will help you produce and edit web pages with the
standard CSE "look & feel". The page you are looking at is an
example. Use this tool to create a new file from scratch, or
take an existing web page and add the standard "look & feel", or
modify the "navigation links" on an existing standard page.
- You can safely edit the "body" of your standardized page with a
standard text editor, as long as you only modify the section
between the lines "<begin HTML content>" and
"<end HTML content>"
- Beware:Visual editors, such as FrontPage, Word, or
Netscape Composer may cause the CSE standard look & feel of your
page to be screwed up. Even if they do not change the
appearance of the page, they may change the raw HTML code to the
point where the CSE Orthodox Editing Tool cannot recorgnize it.
If that happens, the best thing to do is to reconstruct the
orthodox page by creating a new one, and importing the "body"
section from the mangled file. You may have to rebuild the
"navigation links" by hand, but by viewing the "mangled" file,
you can not only see what they should be, but what their
corresponding links should be.
- Most of the MS Office tools can produce web files ("Save as
HTML..."). If you want them to have the standard CSE look and
feel, you'll need to use the CSE Content Tool as described
above, and import your saved HTML file.
Periodic Maintenance
- You should periodically check for broken links (links that go
nowhere), or the converse: orphaned files (web files
that are not linked from anywhere.)
Protecting Content
(Restricting Access to Your Web Pages)
- You can protect your pages so only
CSE members can view them, or so only specicific individuals or
groups can view them.
- Managing so-called "web groups" is done with the
Web Group tool.
- If you are collaborating with others on some web pages, you may
find it useful to view the
access settings for web files.
More Information
- "Federal and state law requires that University publications contain
statements communicating equal opportunity and/or disability accommodation.
In some cases both statements are necessary." Among the types of publications
requiring such statements are those announcing public events, recruitment
publications, applications for admission to our educational programs, and
employment applications. Here is a page describing
statements of disability accomodation, and
a page describing
statements of equal opportunity.
- Lots of useful information can be found in the
CSE Web FAQ. If you want to create your own
home page, see the CSE Home Page FAQ.
Other useful resources are listed at the left of this page, and many more
can be found in the FAQs.
