Re: webpage file directory
Hmmm, I created the index.html folder and uploaded some files to it. My website address looks like this, home.comcast.net/myusername/index.html I didn't create any webpages I just made the index.html folder and put some files in it. Now wouldn't you think if I typed in the address listed above it would list the files in the index.html folder? But no it still gives me the "this user has not moved yet" message. I know I could create a webpage with frontpage and list the files that way, but since I'm just using it for storage, that is kind of overkill. And I don't want to use "my file locker" because I want other people who are basically computer illiterate to be able to download stuff with out entering passwords. But if it comes down to it, I'll just make a webpage with front page and stick the files on there. |

That is part of your problem as it has to be:
username.home.comcast.net/index.html |

index.html needs to be a file, not a folder. It is the default page loaded when the directory is requested. What you need to do is create that page, then put links to the files on that page.

Both are correct...
username.home.comcast.net
or
home.comcast.net/~username (don't forget the tilda)

You don't need the index.html part at the end. Username.home.comcast.net is enough. |
