Chicago-Kent Web Page Naming Conventions
Chicago-Kent's main web pages are located on a UNIX based server
and certain conventions must be followed. All files and
directories (folders) must be one word; no spaces! The use
of question marks (?) and asterisks (*) is strictly forbidden.
Do not use any special characters such as parenthesis '(', ')',
apostrophes ('), quotes ("), exclamation points (!), etc.
Hyphens (-) and underscores (_) are allowable.
All files should end with a .html extension, not .htm.
The use of spaces and special characters places an extra burden on the
computing resources of the school when attempting to locate the
correct file. The spaces and special characters also
interfere with normal web server maintenance.
To present more readable file names, you may mix the case of the
letters, use an underscore, or hyphen in the name; SomeFileName.html,
AnotherFileName.html, some-file-name.html or another_file_name.html.
You should also be aware of the End-Of-Line settings when using
web editing tools. Please be sure this is set to UNIX and
not Windows.
