Anyone out there with an ear and advice?
have designed my site through photoshop all looking very sexy and great, done everything right, left the photos of so i can upload them onto my host and place them into the pages on dreamweaver so its easy to change them when i have updates.
was about to put a front page up as a test just so there was something there other than the godaddy parked page, when all of a sudden I was hit in the face HARD!
putting all the right details in site definition and pointing the page to my server everything looks like it should work yet when i test it all i get is a damn message saying that the server is not responding.
been talking to my host now for the last few hrs through email and they stopped replying, think its lunch time or something for them. I have no idea what is wrong and everyone i talked to has no idea either!
what am i doing wrong! I feel like just getting someone to upload the site for me and sort all these bugs out!!

It connects for me. Is the domain name still propogating? When did you change the dns info for the domain?

It was a joke.

Some chap came in here at the weekend and caused a bit of a stir.

Have you tried connecting using filezilla yet, like I said 6 hours ago?

Its going to be a DNS error, some DNS servers can take up to 48 hours to propogate depending on who your ISP is - try using the IP address instead of the domain name and see if you can connect / upload to that.

Drop me a PM and I will give it a shot from here and at least try and eliminate your computer/ISP etc

The nameservers will be changed but they wont be pointing correctly yet which means you'd get a server not found or whatever response. It all depends on who you host with. Mine propogates in a few mins, some hosts I've used take the full 48 hours.

This page is used to test the proper operation of the Apache HTTP server after it has been installed. If you can read this page it means that the Apache HTTP server installed at this site is working properly.
