You have to use an ftp client in order upload your files on the internet. Your internet provide should give you an account and password.


Then you will need to use the client (software) such as Eudora (as I%26#039;m sure there are many types of software to do this around) to upload the files to the provider%26#039;s server.


From there, it is on the internet...
Reply:You will need to get an FTP account with your host.





Then, the easiest thing is to is add a network place:





1. Open the Start menu and select My Network Places


2. The My Network Places screen will open


3. From the Network Tasks pane click the Add a network place


The Network Wizard will begin


Click Next to continue


The Wizard will ask you where you want to create this network place.


Select Choose another network location


Click Next


The Wizard will continue, asking you What is the address of this network place?


In the Internet or network address: dialogue box enter


ftp://ftp.yoursite.com


Click Next to continue


The Connect to yoursite.com screen will open


In the User name: dialogue box, enter your userid (probabbly: username@yoursite.com)


In the Password: dialogue box, enter your password


If you want Windows to remember your password you can click the checkbox beside Remember my password


Click OK to continue


The Wizard will now ask you to name this shortcut


You can name it anything you like, just as you would name a directory on your hard drive


Click Next to continue


From the Start menu, select My Network Places


The shortcut you created to your account will be in the list


To open your new FTP account double click the shortcut


The login screen will open, prompting you for your User Name and Password. Note: User Name, userid, NetID all mean the same


Enter them, and click OK





Then open the folder where your site is located and copy n paste all of the contents into your ftp location.


MAKE SURE everything goes into the Public_html folder. You must also have an index.htm, index.html, index.php or defautl with any of those extension.





If all goes well...KABOOM...your site will be on the internet!





Let us know how it works out.
