Testing Site ??

[specialtiesbarbados]

My domain is http://www.specialties-distributors.com but I haven't published my own site yet. Still working on it. What you see at that URL is a site I am working on for a friend who will probably transfer his domain to VodaHost once his site is completed.

Is there a way to upload his site/pages to my domain (maybe as a sub) so he can see what I am working on? Even if the links won't work and he has to enter the page names manually to the URL. I would like to get my own site online as soon as I am finished with it but also like to show to my friend what his site will look like. He lives in France and I in Barbados.

Yes.

Just make a subdomain and publish your friends website under it.. or you can even name the page something like

http://www.yourdomain.com/friendspage.html

and he will be able to access it by typing in the address.

Thanks, Steven, your suggestion is much appreciated.

Steven, I have created a sub which has become www.[friend].[mydomain].com. I have also added an FTP account with login name and p/w.

Using the original server IP address for [mydomain].com with new login name and p/w r I can't upload to the sub....

What am I doing wrong??

We have tutorials about how to publish to add on domains.

Yep, I looked at them before but it wasn't too clear to me. I was under the impression one had to use the logon and p/w as established via ADD FTP account.

By trial and error I saw that one has to publish with original username and p/w to folder public_html/[subname]

So, can I now delete the additional FTP account I created as it seems I don't need it?
