I have used Cute FTP and I have tried many times to get my site up and running but have now deleted all the files I had in the remote pane and started again. I have uploaded my files again and they are all there in the remote pane. There is Index.html, Page 1.html to Page 7.html and they are in the file htdocs/cgi-shl but when I go into freeola and type in my name, I get an error message of 403, index page not found. Why is this? Does anyone know why my site isnt appearing please.

Glad to hear you got it working.
For future reference all you web viewable files should be in the htdocs folder. Only CGI scripts should be in the cgi-shl folder. All files should be named in lower case with no spaces or funny characers, this make is easier to figure out problems. So you should have the main index.html file then page_1.html, page_2.html etc...

Hi
I have now deleted them out of the htdocs/cg-shl file and put them in htdocs file, but still getting error 403 message.

Surely they should be in just htdocs, not htdocs/cgi-shl ?
