Check and make sure you have a file called index.htm or .html or .asp or whatever your using to design your site.  Most web servers require a file with a certain file name to be the "base" page of you site, so that when someone enters your URL with no filename (ex: www.mysite.com; instead of www.mysite.com/index.htm) the server knows where to send them.\n\nAlos, try clearing your browser cache with a refresh (or hit F5); I have pages that take a while to work even when all the files are there.  The AOL browser is the worst about it.\n\nGood luck.

Now, You must have something:\n1. Webservice, test your website. We can have : IIS for ASP, Apache for PHP,...\n2. Upload your files to your trust hosting : Total Commander (ghisler.com, my best tool), FTP Rush(http://www.ftprush.com), SmartFTP... (Read more at : http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=com.microsoft%3Avi-vn&q=FTP )\n3. Tools for develop : Dreamweaver, Frontpage, Topstyle (for CSS), XML... I just use : Editplus ^___^\n4. PHP ( http://php.net ), Mysql (http://mysql.com/ )\n5. Find some source code, to learning ^^. A question for u : "how did they do that ?", try with ur best to find best of them.\n\nYou can search there tools in google.com, yahoo.com...\nSorry, My english's not good! I'm Vietnamese.

In your browser's address bar type ftp://canadathebest.com (notice no http:// and no www). You can also open the command line and type ftp canadathebest.com (notice no ://) but I tried and the FTP does not respond on that site-- make sure it is installed, and that the service or daemon is running and everything is configured properly. By default most servers have this turned off.  You also need ports 21 open on your firewall, or you need to specify the port if you want to use a different port (more secure that way) as ftp://canadathebest.com:8021 or whatever port you select.

Just tried it myself. Same happened for me! Their web server must either be offline of have malfuctioned. I suggest trying it at a later date or try and contact the people who are hosting the web site to see what is wrong.

Okay, all depending on the site you wish to FTP to, File Transfer Protocol may or may not be available\n\nBut in order to FTP to an FTP available site, All you have to do is type\n  "ftp:&#92;&#92;username:password@thewebsite.com"\ninto your web browser.\n\nUsername, password, and thewebsite.com will all be replaced with your respective information.

Hi,\nWithout actually seeing your site, it's hard to pinpoint the problem, but these troubleshooting ideas might help:\n \nFirst make sure your confirmation page is published and available on the Web. You should be able to see your page at http://www.yourdomain.com/blank.html (replace "yourdomain.com" with your own domain name). If you don't see your page, be sure to republish it to avoid the page not found error.\n\nYou should also make sure your form and confirmation pages are saved in the same directory. You didn't mention that you'd created any subdirectories, so this shouldn't be an issue for you, but if your form is saved in the main directory of your site (in other words, you can see it at http://www.yourdomain.com/page2.html) and your "thank you" page is saved in a subdirectory (so you view it at, say, http://www.yourdomain.com/subdirectory/blank.html), the confirmation page won't work. You'll need to republish it to the main directory of your site. \n\nFinally, be sure you've set your form properties correctly. Click on a blank part of your form, then click Enter on your keyboard to see the Form Properties dialog. In the "Confirmation page:" field, you should see "blank.html." If you don't see that page, click the "Browse" button to select the right page. See the Help Center for a picture of what this screen looks like: http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/webhosting/sitebuilder2/forms/forms-14.html.\n\nIf none of these ideas solves your problem, please be sure to contact our Customer Care team:\n\nhttp://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/contactus \n\nWith some more details about your site, I bet they'll be able to help.\n\nGood luck!\n\nJen\nYahoo!

Dreamweaver can not execute PHP codes except you install PHP on your computer, but Dreamweaver can edit and recognizes PHP

The problem is with the browser not with Dreamweaver.\nTry other browser.

First step is to take your software program and compress it into one file. You can use the zip file format or StuffIt.\n\nNext, store that compressed file on your hard drive in your local site. That's the folder that is set up to look like the file and folder structure of your real site, but on your computer. You can put in a folder as mentioned called downloads.\n\nOn your web page (which you've set up in Dreamweaver) where the download link is supposed to go, create some text (like download now), select it and then, using the little target icon that is next to the link field in your properties panel, click and drag a line so that it points to the compressed file in your files list panel on the right. Make sure you can see the compressed file's name in the list.\n\nSave and preview in a web browser. If it doesn't download properly, right-click on the link in the browser and choose "Save link as" or "Download link" or whatever term the browser uses to download the linked file. It should download to a default location on your computer. You may want to include the instructions for right-clicking a link so that your visitors are aware.\n\nFinally, synchronize your local site with your remote site in Dreamweaver and you're ready to go.

Yes, it was long ago, when setting a web page was a webmaster job. But, now you have to do nothing, just to choose a right layout that fits you best and insert some images via web based file upload system.\nftp upload is bit lengthy process and very difficult for newbies.\nI provide you some link so you can get some quick idea for web layouts just check the link.\nfreewebs uses a file trasfer protocol to upload images and contents. But not much liked by people.\nBesides you have other choices too...

You might be uploading your new page to the wrong folder on your site.  If you're using FrontPage or FTP to upload your web pages, make sure you upload to the folder that's the document root for your site.

If you're just using the html that you got from dreamweaver, then no. There's no way of detecting what produced the html.

wysiwyg writes the html for you as you are dragging things on the page. no need to convert it. just upload the page to the server when you are done with it. do not use frontpage. it's difficult for newbies and uses code only internet explorer can view. get dreamweaver

Well first of all you must register your domain name. Go to www.godaddy.com and see if your domain name is available. Register it. Wait a couple days. After that you will be able to upload your website using an FTP client. (File Transfer Protocol)...I would suggest Cute FTP...easy to use.\nYou will also need a program to build your page. If you just want something easy cheesy you can use MS Word. Need something more advanced? Dreamweaver is the way to go. This is a process that takes some time but is cheap and easy.\nI also think at godaddy.com they have something called "website tonight" that can get you up and running easy too. Enjoy!

the problem with nvu is it is setup for firefox browsers. this means internet explorer users (80% of web surfers) will have a problem viewing all of the code on your pages.\n\ni suggest you get dreamweaver.\n\nFree Ftp Clients - http://www.trustmeher.net/freeware/cute.htm\n\nWhen FTPing files from your computer to your online account send text files, HTML/XHTML files, CSS files in the ascii mode. Send image files, movie files, music files in the binary mode. There is an automatic mode that is supposed to detect the type of file you are sending. But it isn't always reliable.\n\nSome software such as HTML/XHTML Editors have a FTP utililty included in them. Some of these actually work and some don't. Microsoft Frontpage has one but you can only use if you host has what is called "Microsoft Extensions" installed on their server.\n\nI suggest you never use Microsoft Frontpage to create a web site anywhere except on Microsoft Network. Some of the source code that it produces will only be displayed by Internet Explorer. Also it has a forms wizards built into it that uses a form action that only works on Microsoft Network. The only browser on Microsoft Network is Internet Explorer.

Hey Annilea,\n\nYou got 90% of this right for what you're trying to do. I don't know Dreamweaver, but if you look at the html posted to the blog, you'll see the following:\n\n<form id="OrderForm" name="OrderForm" action="mailto:OMMITTED" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">\n\nThat's not quite right. You don't want a multipart/form-data... you want a text/plain for your email body:\n\n<form id="OrderForm" name="OrderForm" action="mailto:OMMITTED" method="post" enctype="text/plain">\n\nTry making the change (with a text editor rather than Dreamweaver if you have to), and see if this works out for you.\n\nGood luck!

I'd like to try and help you, but to be honest I don't understand your question. Are you looking for Dreamweaver support? Are you looking for a web host who will help you with Dreamweaver questions? \n\nI run a web hosting company, http://www.mxdwebservice.com, and would like to be the first one to actually help you with your problem, you stated that webhosts are not helping you at all, but I don't kow what exactly you are looking for. Please repost with more information about your problem and maybe I can be of help! :)\n\nGood luck to you!
