:mad: could someone please tell me how to create Sub-domains, can it be done simply by going in using an ftp program, or can it only be done through the host

yours truly,

i am not sure what you mean by "go in and use ftp", but... in general, i believe that a subdomain has to be configured through a host.

A subdomain is a folder within your website which usually contains another index.html file. They should be simple to make, but I don't know your server, so I don't know how to tell you to make one. Sorry!:confused:

A sub domain has to have a dns record setup so browsers can find it.

to make it easy I use http://HostRocket.com for a domain host.

their control panel makes it very easy to set up sub domains.

BTW if you choose to use them as a host tell them I sent you!!

Subdomains are a directory that has the webserver set to access it directly - i.e. forums.webdeveloper.com is a subdomain of webdeveloper.com
