" I have some HTML files that have been written on a PC/Windows system. Before uploading these files to the virtual server, should I convert the text to UNIX text or leave it in another form? Basically, I am asking does my text need to be converted in order to run on the Virtual Server? "

When you upload the files with your FTP client, just be sure that you upload all HTML files and CGI source code in ASCII mode. Upload all binary files such as images and compiled CGI programs in BINARY mode. The FTP client will automatically convert the text when transferred in ASCII mode.
