Overview
Your personal webspace refers to the “www” folder in your Career Account Storage space. Once you have been granted permission, you can host your own webpages in this space.
Users are NOT granted a personal webspace by default, permission must be granted prior to use.
Staff and faculty may request a personal webspace on their own behalf by sending an email to it@purdue.edu and requesting access.
Students require a staff or faculty member to make a request for a personal webspace on their behalf. The staff/faculty member making the request should send an email to it@purdue.edu including the student’s username and the reason for making the request. Common reasons are ‘required for class’, ‘club related’, ‘personal development’, etc.
NOTE: Content or use considered to be an inappropriate use of campus resources, may be subject to removal and/or punishment.
What is the URL for my personal web page?
Your default page is http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~yourusername which points to the “index.html” file in your “www” folder. To access something else stored in your “www” folder, simply type in the name of the file after your username (for example: http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~yourusername/test)
All web files should be placed in the “www” folder on your Purdue Career Account.
