whew...31,000 lines of binary junk for the home page alone.
|I believe the two problems below were caused as a result of me changing the
| B6dU8XyZ style password to something more memorable...which I then forgot
| that I had done! Sorry.
|
| I uploaded the index_files within Wise-FTP. But where do I go from here in
| terms of 1&1. When I spoke to someone from 1&1 last night they said that
| website was coming up with loads of "binary". On the Wise-FTP there's a
bit
| called Transfer Mode with three choices, ASCII, Binary and Auto. Which
one(s)
| should I select?
|
| When I get into the Control Panel in 1&1 there's a section called Webspace
| Explorer. In it there are two folders, Logs and index_files, and 1 x TMP
| file, 13 x HTM files (page numbers), 1 x HTM file (index.htm), 1 x XML
| (filelist.xml) and 1 x PUB (index.htm.pub). Am I in the right place and
what
| do I do? I have a feeling the PUB file shouldn't be there because 1&1 said
| they don't support PUB files.
|
| I'm going to get some Aspirin...
