Answer 1

I agree with Kacky.. if your trying to build a website better start from Ms Frontpage.. I'm not much of a web kid but try some other web hosting sites... URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator or something like that... its the location where your "files"(the HTML codes, Media etc. contained in your site.) should be. You can use a web hosting site to host(save in) your files. So your problem is either with your codes, or with the service that your using.. there are some helpful forums out there to give you a little lesson when it comes to HTML... HTML or Hyper Text Markup Language are the codes used by the web browser to display the page your viewing... you can see it by right clicking the web page and clicking the "view source" option and then a note pad will pop out and you'll see the HTML codes(in IE). try learing HTML to fully express what you want to show in your site... I'll advise you to use Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 to make your dream page... then just feel free to ask other people when you have probs. well.. thats that. ^_^ hope it helps..

Show your web guy screen shots of what you're typing in and what it's saying in response. I had lots of false starts when I first got started with a paid website, and the screenshots helped my guy figure out what I was doing wrong.
