1. Every 1st level or main page such as cleanair.com or cleanair.net or hotair.com etc. have the following in the main folder:
a. index.html
b. image folder (for images used by more than one sub folder)
c. 2nd level folder for each link or "link group" (an
example of a link group is Source & Source
Schedule)
d. no other html without a separate 2nd level folder unless approved
by the Dreamweaver users group.
e. Move everything that does not have a link in the index to a
folder without a index.htm(l) file if you want them to be index
by the Google Appliance.
2. Every 2nd level Sub-Folder should have:
a. index.html
b. image folder (for images used only by this 2nd level topic )
c. 3rd level folder for each link or "link group"
3. 3rd level folder should NOT follow the
same concept unless ever page in the folder apears as a link in a
index page. Use good judgment based on number of documents.
4. Use sub-folders in image folders to group images into logical
categories and to limit the maximum number of images in one folder
to about 20.
5. Please do not use the following characters in folder names;
$, ! ,+, {, }, &, [, ],%,
#, •, and $
6. Illegal filename characters:
\ (backslash), / (forward slash),
: (colon), * (asterisk), ? (question mark), " (double quotes), < (left
angle bracket), > (right angle bracket), | (pipe).
Most of these
are Windows OS constraints; Mac allows all except a colon (though
a forward slash, /, can cause issues for POSIX paths). The aim
here is to allow problem-free cross-platform use. An all-Windows
or all-Mac organisation may need to interact with others using different
OSs, so the safe method is to observe both OS' limitations, even
if you mostly/always work on only one OS.
