A couple of questions: -
1) Do I access my homepage at homepage.ntlworld.com\username? as I believe. If so I cannot access it and receive the following:-
the page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Please try the following:
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelt correctly.
Click the Back button to try another link.
HTTP 404 - File not found
2) The above problem, may be due to the website design, as the website my wife designed in word2000 creates a default.htm, which I believe should be OK. Does anyone have any ideas?
We are only trying for a fairly basic site at the moment with photos etc, before we move onto something more adventurous  |
Hi,
Sorry about the confusion over proxies.
Stick around and i am sure someone from Support and in the know of the current set up will help and confirm.
From memory the the dtn.ntl.com were the addresses given prior to the ntlworld.com being used.
Now i know they migrated all of the email addresses over by way of aliases.
I.E. that is if they mail your dtn.ntl address it auto redirects to to the ntl world address.
Not 100% sure what the score is for web space though.
Although logically i would have thought if you can up upload via dtn.ntl then when viewing the dtn.ntl address should either display or re direct to the ntl world address.
Maybe it is the other way around though as you say you cannot access the uploads via ntlworld.com
What happens though if you upload to ntlworld.com, can you see it then by entering for example
www.homepage.ntlworld.com\username?12324
The ?1234 will refresh and load the new page and bypass the transparent web cache.
As i siad earlier maybe one of the many Techies with access to your records will drop in and pick up on this and confirm which web space address is valid.
