How to upload to Geocities without ftp and without EZ-Upload:
This should normally not be possible. But it is.

Geocities has provide us with a HTML-editor. You will normally use it for simple modifications of the HTML-code, which allow us to wiev our pages.
Luckily it allows us to  cut and paste with the normal Ctrl+A (marks everything) Shift+PageDown (Marks a lot), Ctrl+C (copies the marked) and Ctrl+V (inserts it, also in the editor window).
The limitation is that you can not edit large documents.
Also you can not upload pictures this way. (But if you have the pictures uploaded, you can write the <Img>-tag. Warning: The copyright! They won't be as generous as they have been.)

It is necessary that you can see the HTML-code of your page, if you want to do this.

If the above conditions are met, then you can use Geocities HTML editor to upload in the following way:

  1. Make the page as you wish it to be, using Netscape Composer, HomeSite or whatever. Any picture you want to use must be on the internet already (WARNING: The copyright laws must be obeyed).
  2. When you wish to upload, open WordPad, the small word prossesor in Programmes/Assesories.
  3. Open the file in WordPad by pressing Ctrl+O, choosing to see All Files and finding the HTML-file you have made. Open the file.
  4. Open your browser. Go to the page http://login.yahoo.com and log in. Find http://geocities.yahoo.com/, and choose File Manager.
  5. If you have already made the page, choose it from the list and edit it. If not, choose to Create a new HTML file
  6. When you can edit the Geocities file, go back to your own file. Choose to View Source, HTML Source, etc. and mark all, then copy what you have.
  7. Go back to the Geocities page. Click inside the window, where the Geocities Page's HTML is seen. Mark the part which is not supposed to be there any more, and press Ctrl+V (OBS: some systems use Alt+V). Or find the right place in the code, and insert it, again with Ctrl+V. The code you made is now in the window, together with any part of the existing code, that you didn't mark.
  8. Then press the button Save underneath the text editor window.
  9. The list of your files reappears. Check that the document is as wished.

You now have a document at Geocities. Click to see more great pages on Society.
