Please help newbie uploading site using cpanel x

nedomains · Sep 10, 2007

Hi
I have just finished my first minisite using an open source template, which looks great. However when I have uploaded it none of the images or the background colours show. What am i doing wrong? the site is www.aboutclaims.com if you could take a look.

Many thanks

1. Logon to your ftp (ftp.aboutclaims.com)
2. Download the index.html file
3. Edit the file and change
<link href="css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"> to
<link href="http://www.aboutclaims.com/css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
4. Save the file and upload to ftp

This should work, let me know how you get on.

Cheers

Ben

Im not sure about the above request.

I would simply ensure that you have a folder called 'css' and have put style.css in there.

In the <head> section try changing this:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">

to this:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
