I've been tryin to sign up for blogger, but I got stuck...I dunno what a path is and my host just told me to put "/mypassword"

but my other friend says its wonrg...an i can kinda trust her on that one because she helps me out more then my host.

ok i'm going to explain it the best i can.

If you have www.yourdomain.com as your url, and you want to have a directory called "blogger" and inside that directory you want to have the file index.html to be the blog page then this will be your information:

filename: index.html
url: www.yourdomain.com/blogger/index.html
path: /blogger

you see the path is nessecary when you have the actual file INSIDE another subdirectory, and not your root (main) directory

but if you just have got your index.html file (the one that is the file that people see entering your page) as your blogger file then you don't need to fill in a path, you can leave it blank..

Also what do you see when you log in onto your space from your host? do you only see your directory or allready your files? or do you see more directories?

for my URL I put - ftp.dissendium.net

heyy thanks, I 'll have to show it to my host later...

I'm usin Unlimited FTP - and when I log in I see my directory....I dunno what u mean by other things but I can delete my account and add new directories when I log in.

i was just making sure :) since i got a host that doesn't has several FTP accounts, i'm under her account. In that case you do need to fill in a PATH, but that's not in your case.

ftp url = ftp.dissendium.net
url= http://www.dissendium.net/yourname/index.html
filename = index.html
path = 'leave blank'

this is the example for having your blog to show up on the index.html page.

good luck :)
