As a follow-up to my question 1st asked yesterday 'How do you get a web site up & running at Magix??????  Thanks George for your answer, but the 1st page is 'index' and as I said it's live on my main Hosting site using the same uploaded files, but when it comes to Magix - nothing.

When I first went into the file manager in the control centre & open 'manage FTP storage' - nothing, empty, but for a folder called WebFTP/ which was also empty.

I created 2 folders inside the WebFTP folder, uploaded the pages to 1 of them & the pictures to the other as I had done with the other Hosting package- the one that works perfectly & got nothing. All the pages are listed as htm files & the pictures as jpeg. etc as they should be & as they are with the other site, but I still get 'Web site under construction' when I try to view it.,

Any more ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Question: do you habe a domain or only the free sub domain?

Your free subdomain blahblah.magix.net/public (default for FTP) points to the root of your FTP webspace.
If you already uploaded your website (with index.htm as startpage) to the root (and not to a subfolder) your website should appear.
