How to create a simple remote HTTP server for static publishing? [message #811710]

Hello,
I am new to Eclipse. I have created a simple static Web project. I want to publish these HTML pages to my remote webserver. I have spent hours on the "create new server" menu and can not figure this one out. Thanks in advance for your help.

Dealing with static web pages, all you need to do is copy them, via ssh
(WinSCP if on Windows) to the location your host has provided to you.
That might be accommodated by Eclipse, I've never tried to set it up (if
it can be), but it's such a simple thing that to use Eclipse for it
would be like cracking a walnut with power tool.

Someone else may have a more Eclipse-ish answer.

Hi Russel,
Thanks for the answer. I know how to publish outside of Eclipse using simple HTML editor such as KompoZer. Still, the idea is to do everything I need within Eclipse and this is the first step. Si if someone could help me with these first simple steps, I would appreciate. Thanks again.

Eclipse doesn't have much to support pushing static content to a remote
web server. You can try opening Help > Eclipse Marketplace and searching
for some FTP or other plugins that might help. There's also the Remote
System Explorer, which might help: http://www.eclipse.org/tm/
