Hey, this is the first time I've ever done anything like this before, the only other way I've had sites hosted was at school where I just kind of dumped my files into a sites folder and it was on the web.

I have all my sites ready for web, including all the supporting files I'm not sure if I went about this in the right way but I used the cpanel application and uploaded them into the fttp server.

I think this was what it explained in the faq

I thought that at this point if I went to my web address and typed in skin.html (my index page) at the end that it would be viewable.

are there steps I'm missing, or am I completely off base here.

I'm sorry for being such a newbie but everyone's gotta start somewhere ;)

Are you sure you published to public_html? If so, did you check to make sure your files are there?

Well initially they uploaded to the fttp section, but then I realized that might be wrong, so I switched it to the public html folder, they are all in there...

I know this is kind of a stupid question but the address would be
http://federiciv.x10hosting.com right?
Edit:
Oh wait nevermind, I reuploaded my index page directly to the public html and now its working! thank you!

Hey you probably already know but if you call your first page index.html then when someone types in http://federiciv.x10hosting.com/ the index.html page will come up automaticaly. There may be a way to make your skins.html come up straight away but I wouldn't know how

Click to expand...

This is how:

File name: index.html

HTML: 
<html>
<head>

<meta http-equiv="Refresh"
content="0;url=http://federiciv.x10hosting.com/skins.html">

</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

JFWIW vfederic....Your page @ http://federiciv.x10hosting.com/ DOES come up as a valid page entited Body Class Final. There's a big picture of what appears to be insects on the page which links to a photos page which also works.

In short, everything seems to be working just fine on my end. Nice site. :D

Hope this helps :D

Cheers :D
