once I've published to cPanel...now what?

[ke32989]

Hi everyone,
I'm a (relatively) new user and I'm still trying to figure out how the website building process works. I've published my files onto cPanel in FileManager but nothing shows up on my website but a blank page. I think this is because I have to build and link all my pages together, but I'm not sure how I would do this...if anyone is good in cPanel, I would love some advice or instruction, thanks.

Also, just to make sure I'm publishing into cPanel correctly...if I have my setup in Homesite (or Dreamweaver, i can open it in both) I just upload it from there right? I know I'm supposed to have an index.html as well, do I just create that as a new file in cPanel?

Thanks again.

Long as you put the files in public_html they should be visible, you would need to have one called index.html or index.php for that to work.

So now linking required? I did that and all I get it a blank while document...

Please log into your account management panel ( http://x10hosting.com/account ) using your forums user name and password and request to be upgraded from basic php to intermediate. This will solve the blank page issues.
