Web Project

[Kim]

I want to share a very simple set of web cards with a few cousins who are also researching; just enough to let them know what I've found and my sources. I'm wondering where everyone posts their web projects. Has anyone used RootsWeb Freepages? How has that worked for you?

If not there, are there other suggestions. At this point these will probably be temporary, so I don't want to spend a lot of time or money?

Thanks!

Re: Web Project

Just email the entire folder containing your web project to them. If they are not computer type people, tell them to start by double clicking the wc_toc.htm file. It will open for them in whatever their default browser is regardless of platform.

Do you have a Dropbox account? If so (or are willing to get a free one), please go to this thread -

http://www.reuniontalk.com/showthrea...=public+folder

My message 18 shows step-by-step instructions for putting your web cards on Dropbox. Be sure to read all the posts after it for any updates or suggestions from others.

You should be able to host the web project on the free version of Dropbox. I have 2 on there now. When you open the project, it looks just like a website.

Hope this helps,
Kaye

Thanks Bob and Kaye! These both look like possibilities. I'll check them out.

Kaye, the link doesn't seem to be working.

Re: Web Project

Kaye, the link doesn't seem to be working.

Try this one - http://www.reuniontalk.com/showthrea...=public+folder

If it doesn't work, search for "web project" (without the quotes) and look for "Need help with media pages in web project".

The link to one of my Dropbox web projects there doesn't seem to work, so try this one:
