Web Site

Hi,

This is related to my attempts to FTP pages to my 'storm' site on Phoenyx,
so I can get rid of my Geocities one.  Previously, I had successfully FTP'd
a few files to Phoenyx, but could not move them to the storm directory.  I
noticed that they are now in the correct directory - thanks!  Since I have
quite a few files to upload before the site is complete, I thought I'd try
again (file name = charactr.html).

Part of the response to my earlier post was ...

... this led me to believe that something was fixed - that's why I tried
again.  Another part of that response said ...

... which I take to mean there's still work to do, and that's why it still
doesn't work.  Is this correct?  No problem - I don't mind waiting.  I just
don't want to be sitting here waiting for you to fix something that already
works, if I'm just doing something wrong.

Assuming it doesn't work and I just have to wait - could you give me a
ballpark of when it's likely to be done?  I just want to know so I can
decide whether to go to the bother of updating my Geocities site or wait
until I can switch to Phoenyx.

Thanks,
Kevin.
