Hi folks, I am trying out a new website building program, I tried to download a copy of my website from the website adress into the program without success, but did manage to download a copy of it into the program from my own personal webspace where I keep a copy of it, anyways I have made some changes to the original and want to upload it over the top of the existing site, whenever I attempt to do this it does upload ok but in the wrong place, here is the existing site and here is the new one, the problem being it cannot be accessed using it's URL without adding index to the address, how can I correct this problem?

you've uploaded it all into a folder called index, you need to move all your stuff out of that folder.

or another way, just add a index.html into the base directory (where everything should be) and link it to the index/index.html

Thanks busy, since I posted this message I have managed to sort out the problem, along the lines of what you suggested, I have moved the files around, thanks again I don't know what I'd do without sites like this
