Problem solved - I uploaded an older version of wordpress (1.5 instead of 2) and it worked....at this stage, don't really care to know why, just very happy.
Thanks again so much for everyone's help.

Thanks so much for your help on > this....any other ideas I can try? Don't use the Hostway script for the fresh one, that makes the hostway server own the page once more, use your own FTP program. Make sure it's being uploaded as ASCII. > For the record...what exactly should my .htaccess file say? I can't recall off the top of my head what WP adds to the mix, it turns the rewrite engine on and a bunch of other stuff. Think at the very least there should be this at the top: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php DirectoryIndex index.php Someone might see a problem if you post your htaccess file, xxx out any passwords etc. of course first. I know they aren't the quickest to respond, but what does Hostway say the problem is in their server logs? -- cheers, Mark ____ The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: [email protected] To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk ________________ http://www.wdvl.com _______________________ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
