Uploading LP to server = Fail (4)
Forgive me but I've been working on this for the past two days straight and I'm STILL trying to figure this one out.
Ok, I'll break down my problem.
Created landing page in Photoshop. Saved PSD as "HMTL & Images".
Edited in Dreamweaver. Saved again. Cool, links and everything looks good.
Installed & setup Cyberduck to my VPS.
Uploaded html doc + images to my "public_html" folder on my website's server.
Ok.
Click URL and a 404 pops up. At least that was better than before, a bunch of jarbled HTML code. No images, just long HMTL code.
Is it because I'm missing the CSS code or something? I've been watching a ton of "create a lander in photoshop/dreamweaver/muse + upload + bam!" youtube videos and hasn't seemed to be a problem for them...?
Looks like this after I've uploaded.
I know this has GOT to be something small that I'm missing but I just can't figure this out.
What a noob question.
when you upload a file to a server you dont need to have the /public_html in the link...
IM not sure if you're clicking it from within dreamweaver or your just going to the link in a browser
try http://yourdomain.com/JustBlackSingl...SinglesLP.html

Also, folder/file names in URLs are case sensitive.
I would advise using all lower case and making things simpler in the future, unless you want to spend 6x as long as normal writing URLs.
E.g. use /justblack_talldark/lp1.html instead of /JustBlackSinglesTallDarkHandsome/JustBlackSinglesLP.html
Get one letter wrong in the latter and you'd get a 404...
