[900i]

Hi folks, have just got myself some paid hosting, but having problems reaching my domain control panel/web space either by FTP or web browser. Hosting guy says he can reach it no problem and has uploaded an index.html page but I can't resolve the address. Can a few of you see if you can resolve http://900i.me.uk and let me know the results please.

Many Thanks

Looks like the server of your hoster is around, but they got the DNS resolution for your page screwed up.

Same with traceroute:

Code: Select all

 traceroute 900i.me.uk
traceroute: unknown host 900i.me.uk

Code: Select all

traceroute www.me.uk

It shows up now, didn't a few minutes ago.

BTW, I installed NVU yesterday through the Synaptic package manager. Not as quite as fancy as Dreamweaver, but it looks very good for designing web sites. It is wysiwyg, and sooo much cheaper than DW (its free!).

seems to work

Well I've just tried from my work rig using Firefox on XP and I can see the page. Will have to try from Linux when I get home. Thanks for your help guys.

Kinetics, yes I use NVU too!

Thanks alot Scorp, I forwarded the results you posted to my Hoster and he was able to sort it out. I can now ftp into my webspace and get onto the control panel. Thanks again.

Hi fellas,

I used NVU to set up my wrk web site. Works well, BUT it didn't render properly on a couple of the pages in IE6. I notice that in IE7 that the pages render better. Does that mean that M$ have finally accommodated international code standards?

Regards
John
