Newbie needs help

Ok, I just got smart FTP. I got my web host's server name and everything, and I uploaded a 6 MB file. Their upload limit for FTP is unlimited, and it have 250 MB. Then, I tried accessing it with the file manager, but it didn't show. Then, I tried accessing it on the net using the url, but to no avail. Please either tell me where I can EASILY upload a file, or how to fix this problem. Thanks.

sorry, had a bit of trouble reading your reply. did you say to ask the web host?

yes, smartftp(or any other client) has nothing to do w/ were you upload files, uploading files for a web page is a little different then uploading for a software archive say you should speak w/ your host

Hmm.

Sounds like you succesfully uploaded the file but couldn't then get it back.

i) SmartFTP should allow you to log in to the site and pull it back (the reverse operation of putting it out there). Can you do that?

ii) You don't say how you hoped to retrieve it over the net - perhaps using a browser to retrieve the file. Could you see anything of your location with the browser (or othe tool)?
