Setting up a Web site is not as difficult as you might think. A Web site is simply an HTML document or set of HTML documents, and there are many tools available to help you create such things. How exactly to create a Web site depends largely on the tool you choose. For this reason, this chapter will not try to exhaust the subject. It will simply provide some guidelines and general instructions to help orient you to your task. This chapter divides the task of setting up a Web site into seven main steps:
2. Finding an Internet service provider (ISP) to host your site or building your own Web server
3. Authoring your HTML documents
4. Creating a link to your COBOL programs
5. Posting your HTML documents
