Note: To make the access restrictions work:

• use my server at http://mongoose.aul.fiu.edu:8000/~dlette07, replacing dlette07 with your user name.
• set the permissions for .htaccess to 644

To hand in the assignment, do the following

1. Hand in a printout of the source code for the hw1.html file.
2. Also, send me an e-mail message with the URL of your home page when the assignment is ready to be graded.
3. Upload a copy of the hw1.html file using the ~downeyt/cshome/public/webftp/webftp.pl program from mongoose.

Follow these steps for the assignment.

1. Create a subdirectory of your public_html directory on mongoose.
   • Name the directory COP3832
   • Give world read and execute permission to this directory
   • Create a file named hw1.html in this directory. The contents of this file are described later on this page.
   • Create a file in the COP3832 directory with the name .htaccess that containing the following. You may also add your current ipaddress to the allow from list. However, each time you finish working on your file, be sure to have only my two ipaddresses on the line. You can find out your current ipaddress by running my ipaddress script. Your ipaddress will change each time you log onto the web. Set the permissions for .htaccess to 644.

     <limit GET POST>
     order deny,allow
     deny from all
     allow from  tim.cs.fiu.edu  downeyt.cs.fiu.edu
     </limit>
     

2. Create a home page in your mongoose public_html directory.
   • Name the file index.html. If you don't have a home page on mongoose, then follow the directions in this link: Creating a Web Directory.
   • Create a link from the index.html page to the hw1.html page in your homework directory.

   • Include an appropriate title for your page.
   • Include 6 paragraphs. Each paragraph should have at least 10 lines. The content may be something that interests you, or you may just copy some paragraphs from the text (or grab some off the web!). Each paragraph should have a heading. Use a different one of the six predefined headings for each paragraph, use all six headings at least once. Align two of the paragraphs left, two right, and two center. Make one paragraph bold, another italicized, another underlined. Make the font of one paragraph bigger, and of another paragraph smaller.
   • Include a table of contents at the top of your page which can be clicked to take you to each of the six paragraphs. At the end of each paragraph, have a link back to the table of contents.
