NTL webspace used with a domain name?
 
Can I use ntl webspace to host content but not use the http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ domain? I want to use my own domain but use the ntl web hosting. Possible??
Thanks.
John.

yep :) i used to do it.

Buy the rights to the domain you want, and then setup forwarding to the ntlworld address. You can use framed forwarding if you don't want the homepage.ntlworld.com/etc part to be shown, or standard forwarding if that doesn't matter.

EDIT: bear in mind thought that the ntl space does not support any server side technologies; you might be better off paying 99p per month for an iweb package

I have to agree, there, if you have already got a domain, then contact I-Web, I'm sure they can sort you out, e.g. they can do server side includes, front page extensions, etc, etc :)
