How do I get started using the Aplus.Net HTML Editor?

Answer by: Stuart Pierce, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support.

The Aplus.Net HTML Editor tool will enable you to easily and efficiently create new and/or edit existing HTML documents.

Here’s how to get started using the HTML Editor tool:

1. Start by logging into the Aplus.Net Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration Number and Customer Password.
2. Select Web Hosting from the top navigation bar.
3. Next, select Hosted Domains and click on Manage Hosted Domains.
4. Now, select the hosted domain that you’d like to manage.
5. Click on the Design tab.
6. Next, click the HTML Editor icon.
7. Click Enter HTML Editor to start creating/editing HTML documents.

Note: If you have already used the old HTML editor before May 15, 2006, you will notice that there is new version available. It is supported with most of the popular browsers, while the old version of the HTML Editor can be used with Internet Explorer only. We recommend that you uninstall the old version by clicking on the respective button. This will not affect files you have previously edited with the old version of the HTML Editor.

If you want to update/edit an already existing HTML page:

1. Select Open from the menu at the top.
2. Locate and click on the file you wish edit using the directory list.
3. Make any necessary changes to your page.
4. When you are done, select Save to make your changes permanent. You do not need to upload any files, since all your changes will be automatically saved on your hosting server.

If you want to create a new HTML page:

1. Select New from the menu at the top.
2. Create your page by adding text, tables, images, etc.
3. When you are done, select Save As.
4. Type the name that you want for your file (Keep in mind that you need to use the .htm or .html extension for all files that you want to allow users to view).
5. Click Save to make the changes permanent. You do not need to upload any files, since all your changes will be automatically saved on your hosting server.
