Once you have arrived on the web site you will find a "Tool Box" section located on the left-hand side (3rd box down). In that tool box click on the "Edit Situation Update" or the "Edit Team Activation" link. Once this link is clicked, a prompt dialog box will appear (see figure 1-1 below) asking for your user name and password. Enter this information and click "OK".

The next window you see will be the File Manger page. In the list on the left-hand side, you will see folder icons and names. Double-click on the folder icon (ONLY THE ICON - NOT THE FOLDER NAME) of the "public_html" folder (see figure 2-1 below). This is where all your web site pages are kept, because they are for public viewing.

Once the "public_html" folder is open, scroll down the list until you see "situation_updates" , "team_activation", "team_training". For the file you are updating, click once on the name (ONLY THE NAME - NOT THE ICON) to select the file. Once the file is selected, a list of options will appear in the top right corner of the page. From those selections, click on HTML Editor . (see figure 3-1 below)

In this editor is where you will make all your changes and updates. It looks very much like a word processing program and behaves the same way. You can delete unwanted text, make things bold, change the text color, etc. (If you really want to see the HTML code, you can click on the code tab at the bottom of the editor). In this editor you can insert a picture or graphic that you have saved on your computer, or one that is already on the server. In the very top icon toolbar you will see a small yellow square icon (see figure 4-1 below), click on this icon to insert a picture or graphic.

Once the Insert/Upload picture box is open, you have two options:

1. Insert a picture that is already on the server: locate the file in the left-side list and click OK (see figure 5-1 below, green items)

2. Upload a photo from your computer and then add it to the page: in the top right corner (see figure 5-1 below, red items) in the "Upload an Image" box,

1. click BROWSE to find the file on your computer (as a default, most images that you right-click and save from the internet are put into the "My Documents" or "My Pictures" folder.)


2. Click UPLOAD to add the file to the server.


3. Once the file has been added, locate it on the server list (left side box) and click once to select it. Once the image is selected, a small preview of it will load in below the "Upload an image" box (see figure 5-2 below).


4. Click OK to add the photo to your page.
