GENERAL FOLDER STRUCTURE

 

These are General guidelines for keeping and maintaining each Website

  • Create and Define the 'Root' folder. Usually this will have a name recognisable as the Site you are building.
    Eg: "MySite"
  • Within the 'Root' folder create other folders where appropriate with Names according to their Function.
    Eg: images / Css_styles/ Assets etc.
  • Ensure that all the resources for the site are copied to their relevant folder first.
    Eg: All images to be used for the site copied to the 'images' folder first.
  • Create pages as necessary, drawing the resources from their relevant folders (within the Root folder) and saving the resulting html page to the Root Folder.
  • Saving files to floppy disc Herere

Example Root folder Structure for "MySite.com"

f8 Root folder - Renamed 'MySite' (contains all the Html pages for MySite)
f7 images (contains all images for the site MySite)
f6 Css_styles (contains all external stylesheets for MySite)
f5 Assets (contains other assets/components for MySite)
f4 Javascript (contains all javascript files for MySite)

Etc..
