From what I remember 1999 F150's use a starter relay/solenoid  that is mounted on the firewall or inner fender. If you follow the positive battery cable it should connect to this relay. If the starter spins as soon as the battery cables are connected to the battery then the relay has welded its self in the closed position and is defective. (This does occur but not frequently, they usually fail in the open position) If the problem occurs after the ignition is switched to the "start" position, you need to determine if the ignition switch is still sending the start signal to the solenoid while it is in the "run" position. On the solenoid/relay you will notice two large wires and a small wire. By removing the small wire you will interrupt start signal. If this makes the starter disengage the ignition switch is defective. (Again this doesn't happen often but can occur) If the starter still spins with the small wire removed then as @Paulster has stated the Bendix return spring is not retracting the drive gear and the starter is defective. This the most common reason but the other scenarios have to be eliminated before you ruin the new starter.

I finally got my server up and when I goto local host in a browser i get the "It works!" page.

That's wonderful!

I have my web page put together on my windows7 machine as an HTML/CSS document.

question:

How do I get it over and into my server to be displayed for all the world to see?  I mean, I get it about files and stuff. but I'm not sure of the procedure to cause all this to happen in my Ubuntu box? 

Go easy on me folks! I'm a noob at this. But I am clever so just throw me a clue of "where to go" "what to see" and "what to do" and stuff.
