using NVU to create my pages.  NVU tutorial in bold.

please respond to the red highlights.  thanks & regards, joe

Before you enter that address though, you will need to know which directory (or folder) you need to put your web pages. Some web hosts require you to put your web pages in a directory named "www". Others require you to put it in a "public_html" directory. Still others say that you are to put your web pages into the default directory that you see when you connect by FTP. And so on. Find out the directory where you're supposed to upload your web pages to.

Once you've got all the details, you're ready to form the address you have to enter into the "Publishing address" field.

If your FTP address is "ftp.example.com", and the directory that you're supposed to upload to is "www", enter "ftp://ftp.example.com/www" here. Notice that you have prefixed "ftp://" to your FTP address ("ftp.example.com"), added a slash ("/") and followed it with your web directory name ("www"). If your web host tells you to simply upload it to the directory you are logged into when you connect by FTP, then just enter "ftp://ftp.example.com" here.

For free hosting or paid? For free you just upload into the root directory and the ftp address was provided in the welcome email (ftp.t35.com).
