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...



Other Replys: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.
