Hello, i just uploaded the files to my webspace, and i got confused with step 5 on the web wiz forums documentation. it says to 'point' your web browser to the location on your webspace where you uploaded the forum to.

thanks

If you uploaded the forum to a folder on your web space called 'forum' you would type your domain name followed by the name of your folder into the URL window at the top of your browser.

EG:-

http://www.russallianyouth.cjb.net/forum

Replace forum with the name of the folder you uploaded your forum to.

I had a look at the people you are hosting through and it looks like they use Unix servers and only support PHP, so you would not be able to use this forum application anyway as it requires that your site be hosted on a Windows web server with support for ASP.
