I assume your public_html folder contains a file named  index.html ?

Just noticed that the timestamps when you look at the ftp side of the idnet website are an hour out.

Stu

Yes there is Index.html but still the same

kinmel

can you post a link to the site ?

use index.html

not Index.html

kinmel

you still do not have an index.html file present

this link http://parallel.www.idnet.com/index.html is returning 404 - file not found.

You need to get that working before setting up your image links correctly

think hes deleted all files all i can see is an images folder.

it changed about 5 minutes ago.

I tried renaming my index.htm and only Index.htm and Index did not work.

obviously set up to take lower case only files

g7pkf

think hes uploading now as it seems to be partly working

After 108 transfers they are now all failing

421 too many connections (10) ?

g7pkf

Ah student thing  ;D

yes you need to set your ftp upload client to lmit connections.

mine does that every so often then you have to wait a while.

you could try winscp works for me (and its free)

kinmel

It's getting better - keep going  :thumb:

also it looks like your using uppercase on some of your links from different sites.

captives work from index but not sub pages.

use html not HTML

Stu

Some of the pages that have lower case and are uploaded are not being found

g7pkf

are the links lowercase?

Stu

yes amazing help thanks very much.

On the page http://parallel.www.idnet.com/Captive_1.html  there is a link to a texture sheet at /Texture_Sheet_1.html but the actual file you are trying to link to is called texture_Sheet_1.html - you must get the upper and lower cases right on every link

the link I see on that page is http://parallel.www.idnet.com/texture_sheet_1.html    with a lower case 's' in sheet  but I too get a  404 not found page

Does Unix allow the underscore?

The site has been taken down for a re-modelling.

We have all been through the same learning process

The first one I did seemed easy, Alan, but that's because it was simple. ;)

Can i put up a video on the site?

Rik

Purely as a file, or does it need any support, eg PHP?

Just a file, be nice to have it load up in the middle of the page but if not i can just link to another place

Rik

It should be OK, then. I have a PDF on my 'site', if people click the link, they get the option to d/l it.

How would i upload it and how would i link it?

do i simply upload the mpeg to the directory and link to  movie.mpeg?

Rik

That's what I did.

<h2 align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:14.0pt;
font-family:Arial;color:red'><a
    href="http://rik.www.idnet.com/PDF/Dunblane.pdf">The Dunblane Book of

    <p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:Arial'></span></p>
    </td>
    <td width="4%" style='width:4.28%;padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'>
