so I followed all the steps for x10hosting and have a feeling I should be seeing some weird little default site but when I go to my websites domain/address its just blank. Is it supposed to show some default style website that I can edit/overwrite with my own CSS or is that not included and it wont show anything until I add in my own CSS or whatever is needed to make the website work/look good.

umm I see, its very strange, some users struggle with x10hosting and it may need a bit of tweak. Alternatively, you can have me hosting your website for you, its free and will be guaranteed to work. The only restriction is that you must be actively developing your site. If you are comfortable with this, send me a PM.

Well I'm not very familiar with coding things like mysql or php, I have basic knowledge of html and CSS so I was hoping to host my site somewhere I could play and learn with the script at my leisure. I either learn by absolutely messing up or having someone walk me through every step of the way and answering questions I may have along the way. I figured since the latter is not available, I'd go with the first option and just jump right into it and see how badly I can mess things up before I have to redo everything again :D

So if hosting through you means I have to have something constantly in development then I'd have to kindly decline. I'll toy around with what I've done and see what I can do. Worst thing that can happen is something that isn't running gets deleted. :3

@AnanoKimi - Check out WAMP (here's my guide) - you can "self host" via your own computer to play with PHP and MySQL. Depending on your Internet Service Provider and the router you have, you can even do port forwarding to share your in-development site with friends. :3

It sounds like mincraft self server where you download files and host from your own computer so long as you leave the client running on your end. That was a fun nightmare because neither me and my boyfriend knew entirely how to code in the user permissions since you basically had to do those from scratch with no guideline as to what meant what and did what trhough that client. Fun times.

More downloading and confusion for me it seems :D

EDIT: OOOOOP I'll try this later. I don't feel like hanging up skype just yet :D
