"Cannot connect with ftp server"

Hi

I have signed up for free web hosting but I keep getting an Error returned when I try uploading a web site. I have followed all of the FTP instructions but still get the following error:

"An error occurred whilst trying to get the working directory from the ftp server"

Can anyone help?

Too much bold man, too much for the eyes, edited your post:¬)

Then you should read it ... that's what it's there for!

You've now bought a domain, so splash the cash and do something that you always wanted to do with it ...

I take it you are also connected via Freeola Broadband/Dialup or have Web Freedom?

Hi Mike Bryce and welcome to Freeola Towers ...

You've signed up for free web hosting ... so I presume then that you have already got a 'site' to upload to your web space allocated by Freeola. If so then, have you checked that you have included your Freeola username, Freeola password and Freeola webserver url into your chosen FTP client?

P.S. The name of the FTP client would be helpful aswell :¬)
