My Poor little website hasn't got a home

[hardmandj]

Hi, I’m not sure in the right place,

I am currently trying to load my website .co.uk on to uk2net sever, but it’s seems I am having a few problems and the help service seems slightly poor.

Background info is that I have completed a simple 5 page css menu website using dreamweaver mx on a vista pc. I have followed the server instruction in getting started but not having much luck at all. I tried to load my site via FTP and entered all the information required as needed, but that never worked , with all the problems that have occurred, I loaded each page and image etc via the file manager. This seemed to work and I have placed them in public html, was this right place? Where do I put my website to be seen on www? My main page is indexed etc

any suggestions would be really appreciated as I have gained a few more gray hairs over this one. Is there a step by step guide to getting the site on line etc

The file folder looks like this;
• /public_html
• Access-logs
• Etc
• Home
• Index.html
• Mail
• Public ftp
• Public_html
• Ruby
• Tmp
• www

Many thanks

You'll want to upload all of your files to public_html. The "www" folder is just a shortcut to your public_html folder. Also, make sure your filenames and folder names are lower case as that will make a difference.

It could still be that your 'home-page' or index.html has to be outside of this folder, but try the suggestion of Skie first.

Based on the directory structure he posted, it looks like he's on a CPanel server. If this is the case, no files will be accessible if they're outside of the public_html directory.
