You'll need the server, username and password for the FTP connection.

Then you'll need an application like Transmit (other alternatives are available, I just picked my favourite) to upload the files to said server.

Edit: You have a domain name, do you have a host i.e. someone who is prepared to host your files? Are awardspace doing that for you?

I make most my websites in Dreamweaver, and it has a build FTP feature for uploading your sites. Most Web Page programs have this feature. Though I actually prefer Transmit to do it.

My weapon of choice is Cyberduck... it's free and is simple to use

http://cyberduck.ch/

Supports OS X technologies suck as Bonjour, Spotlight, Keychain and of couse Applescript.

Hope this helps...

sorry it took so long to get back, but when i go to my site, it says currently:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/www/atlbraveslinks.com/index.html on line 1

when i try cyberduck to start the ftp, it always has a disconnection and i can't seem to upload my files, no matter what i do. can someone with an awardspace account help me please?

and my domain name is online, sorta: http://www.atlbraveslinks.com/ right now it just shows the error, but i'm trying to correct that. it's an iweb site btw.

i got connected and got my site loaded, but i'm getting a 500 error now...can't figure that one out.
