Internet access

Step1

Select a template from the "Quick Start" menu. The templates imprint an immediate style—from countryside to techie—on your page and provide a solid starting point for you to explore the process of creating a personal site.

Step2

Pick the “Edit Existing Page” and scroll down to the page to which you want to add text if you have made a Web page with the PageWizards before.

Step3

Title your page in the appropriate block, then add the text you want to appear on your Web site in the box labeled “Enter Text.”

Step4

Use the “Preview” button to see the text as it will appear to visitors to your personal Web page. When you are finished checking things out, close out the preview window.

Step5

Make any changes you would like, or add more text to your page. If you need to preview again, that is no problem. You can go back and forth between windows as many times as you need to.

Step6

Click the “Next” button when you have the text just the way you like it. Complete the rest of the steps in the PageWizard to save your text and any other changes you may have made.

Tips & Warnings

The preview windows do not update in real time. You will need to hit the “Preview” button again after making changes to see the text that visitors to your site will be reading.
No spell checker is available for PageWizards. Double-check with a dictionary before saving.
Changes to your Web page made in PageWizards are not saved unless you complete the entire Wizard process. If you make a change to the text and then cancel out of the rest of the steps, you will lose your changes.
