Using Netscape

If you are using Netscape to navigate the World Wide Web but are not completely familiar with some of its useful features, click for the Netscape tutorial.




French characters for the Web:

The machine (computer) on which the discussion list resides is a UNIX machine, which does not recognize the special characters. Therefore, when using the discussion list to post responses to the questions in French, you will need to use some HTML coding to create the special French characters such as é, è etc... Below is a table which gives you the French character and the HTML equivalent: instead of typing é you will type: é

é = é è = è
ê = ê à = à
â = â ù = ù
û = û ô = ô
ç = ç




Discussion list

The discussion list that we will be using for this class is a threaded discussion list--that is, it can organize topics in a hierarchical manner. When you post a response to a question, you can post it under the topic question. Unfortunately, the discussion list environment does not recognize French accents. In order to to use the special French characters, you will need to type the HTML code for the character. (See above)






Using E-Mail

You have 2 different e-mail options.
  • The first is your own e-mail program, either through the school or through a private ISP (Internet Service Provider) such as America Online. To reach your instructor just put in the following name and address: lfucaloro@csupomona.edu.
  • The second e-mail option is clicking on the "e-mail" on the menu bar (left column of web pages) or on the blue button with the question mark, both of which will open up the e-mail function of your Internet browser (Netscape, Microsoft Explorer, etc...) and allow you to send a message to me directly. If you have not provided your return address to your browser's e-mail feature, you will get a dialog box letting you know this. In Netscape, you need to go to "Options" in the menu bar and select "Mail and News Preferences" to set it up.
