Newbie that I am, as I sit poring over books and tutorial sites, knowing that the road to mastery, or at least functional efficiency, is long...

There must be an easier, quicker way! I am going nuts - slowly - trying to upload a page, using my Dreamweaver, to an existing account at Lunarpages.

The existing webmaster of said account's off to Durrham, England. I'm in Tokyo, Japan.

Just one a page a week to upload, with a little picuture...This is all I need to do... But how, But how? I continue to pore, in the mean whiles. It's almost typhoon season. I think.

Humbly,

Ocularian.

...or, just download cuteFTP at cuteftp.com and use that to connect.  If it's a paysite, the host is neptune.lunarpages.com and the user name is your account name, password is your password.  Also, you can set the default directory as /public_html/

You may want to try to figure a time frame where there may not be a lot of net traffic in your area and in the area of the server.  This can make a huge difference!

Yes, you will have to wait a few days for the servers to update.

It's not lunarpages' fault, it's just the way the internet works.

However, yes, once that is done, index.html will be your default page.
