Allow those not at Yale to view your course web page

By default your web site is set up such that it can be viewed only by Yale people. Using History 123a as an example, if you give the URL http://classes.yale.edu/hist123a to a friend he will not be able to view the site unless he is on the Yale campus. (By contrast, anyone with a Yale NetId and password who has signed up for your class can log in at https://classes.yale.edu/student from anywhere in the world and view your pages.) If you click the button for "Open to the world" the your website can be viewed by anyone who knows the URL, e.g. http://classes.yale.edu/hist123a
