Grove and Plaza web space

Hi everyone,

Martin asked me some questions about Grove and Plaza, UF's student webservers, and I figured this information would be helpful to others also. Grove and plaza are both server spaces that are available to UF faculty and students.

Plaza
Plaza is automatically available to you if you are a student (don't need to request one as you do for Grove). To access it, go to ftp://plaza.ufl.edu/ and log in using your GatorLink Account information. There are 20MB of space available to you in the Plaza space, and it does allow you to run dynamic pages, such as ones using PHP.

Grove
Grove is something you have to sign up for. To do this, go to gatorlink.ufl.edu, and click on MODIFY. Sign in using your GatorLink Account username and password, and click on GROVE UNIX SERVICES. Then click on ADD A NEW GROVE ACCOUNT, and follow the steps there. There are 20MB of space available to you in the Grove space, and it does allow you to run dynamic pages, such as ones using PHP.

To upload web files to either of these accounts, you could use filezilla, which is a file transfer protocol (FTP) software (FREE!!!). Go to google and type in filezilla, and it should be the first link that comes up. It requires downloading the software to your computer, but once you have it, it's easy enough to use.

Any questions, let me know.

Thanks,
Kathryn :)

Technical Development Project progress

This past weekend, my boyfriend and I were supposed to go to Disney's Animal Kingdom, but he ended up getting sick. So we decided to postpone our trip until this upcoming weekend.

So in lieue of going to Disney, I woke up early yesterday (Sunday, 6am - my cats never let me sleep!) thinking that I would just jump into Dreamweaver to see what it was like. When I got in there though, I just kept working and working until 11:30pm last night...this is the result: http://grove.ufl.edu/~kkenned/pages/kathryn_kennedy.htm

So for the rest of the technical development work time, I am going to tweak this site while I am reading the technical books and taking the netG classes.

If you think I should modify anything, please let me know.

Thanks,
Kathryn :)
