Gibberish on new website? Help?

[pinballpizzazz]

Hi everyone, new to the site here. My website is www.pinballpizzazz.com
and I'm trying to get my index page to load, but it just says "Index - cgi bin and index.html.bvp" and if I click on the index part its all gibberish.
I dont know if its my computer or what - also, i named the page index.html, is the BlueVoda site adding bvp at the end?

thank you,
Don

Try saving and republishing the page as "index" only, no extension. That should work. Then use Tools > FTP Manager to delete the wrongly named version.

OK, I'll try that, thank you!

When I save, it automatically adds "bvp" after "index" - will it always do that?
It didnt work, its still gibberish....

Are you publishing using the icon on the tool bar?

Not a problem--the solution is simple. With BlueVoda you must publish using the Publish icon on the tool bar. With your index page open in BV, click on the icon. A window will open that asks you for your correct IP # from a list, user name and password which all came in your VodaHost welcome email. You want to publish to the public_html folder (the default choice). Make sure you've picked "Publish all files." Click the Publish button and in a few seconds you're page will begin publishing.
