Uploading Files

While uploading CGI scripts, .htaccess files, or .htpasswd files,
set your FTP client's transfer mode to ASCII.
This will convert Windows/Macintosh text files to Unix text.

Graphics, and other 'binary' files should always be uploaded using 'binary' mode.

For your scripts, do not use a /cgi-bin/ folder. This would confuse the Apache Web Server. Make a /scripts/ folder or something similar, and put your scripts in there, just as you would have used a /cgi-bin/ folder.

When uploading to your domain space, please set the host name to your domain name.


Example:
hostname: www.your_domain_name.com
username: web_server_user_name
password: ******** (The web_server_user_name password)
