1. Passwords should be 6 to eight characters in length.
2. Your password should not appear in the English dictionary.
3. Don't use your login ID or name as a password.
4. Do use a mix of digits and letters or upper and lower case letters.

Tips and Information for First Time Users

Don't use 'spaces' within filenames, they will not work correctly; use an 'underscore' character (_)

Avoid using capital letters within filenames, the web is case-sensitive when it comes to filenames

Always keep backup copies of your entire web site in case of accidental deletion or server crash

Try to use one of the following as the filename for your homepage: index.html, homepage.html, default.html, home.html or welcome.html

You can either use an .html or .htm extension when saving your HTML files
