I'm having my first shot at designing a web page. Didn't have a clue where to start and don't really want to shell out on Frontpage.

So this week I bought PC Format and it came free with Hotmetal 4.0. It looks like its a version from 1997, but this doesn't matter as I don't want to do anything flash.

So last night I had a muck about and thought I had it sussed until I tried to upload it.

Was ok with my ISP's ftp address, and my mail name and my password. But then their was a space for path. Looked through on line help on both the app and my ISP, but couldn't find what I am supposed to key in as the path. Each time I tried to 'publish' my home page it kept saying that there was a failure and this was because my ISP didn't have enough web space, or I didn't have permission to write.

Any help with the format for this line would be very much appreciated.

Many grovelling thanks

Dave P

Dave,
Ring up your ISP and find out what your www path is.

[EDIT] Also, I would be suprised if your mail password is the same as your FTP password. [/edit]
