Digirunt Posted July 9, 2003 Posted July 9, 2003 I'm trying to use a random link script and it requires: ># $PAGE_BASE: path to directory at root of the HTML document tree. This is # the pathname (not a URL) to the directory in which your HTML documents are # stored. You can find out the correct path to use (usually, although this # may not work for some complex filesystems) by changing directory to the # directory where you keep your HTML files and then typing 'pwd' at the # shell prompt. If this doesn't work for you, or you don't have shell access, # ask your administrator. $PAGE_BASE = "what goes here please"; What path do I need to put here to point to the folder called "poems" which is in my "public_html" folder. I assume this is right as well: ># $URL_BASE: string to put at the start of the returned URL. This is the # URL corresponding to the $PAGE_BASE path above. In other words, it's the # string that all your URLs start with, typically 'http://' followed by the # name of your host, another '/', and then (probably) a string identifying # your own directory. $URL_BASE = "http://64.246.62.111/~saintco/poems/"; Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer my question. Rock Sign because I know I'll get sorted Quote
TCH-Rick Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 The page_base should be /home/saintco/public_html. The URL_base can be http://yourdomainname.com/poems/ after your domain has propagated. Quote
Digirunt Posted July 10, 2003 Author Posted July 10, 2003 Rock Sign Super. . . it is alive! Thanks The URL_base can be http://yourdomainname.com/poems/ after your domain has propagated Not all servers are as good as TCH, my old saerver [oneandone] seem to have the slowest customer service response time on the net. I've phoned twice know and have been ASSURED that my domain has the DNS entries changed and will be active soon. Anyway thanks nat Quote
