You can create all your HTML files on your local PC and upload them to your Virtual Server with any FTP program. As you create the files on your PC, you save them in the .htm or .html format. After you FTP them to your server, use the rename command of your FTP software to change the files to the use the .html extension if they are not already named that way.

You will need to FTP your HTML files to the usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs directory. Make sure you FTP them in ASCII mode and not binary mode. ASCII mode is for text files such as HTML documents and CGI script source code, binary mode is for files such as image files and compiled CGI programs that are not in text format.
