We need more specific information before we can even guess at the problem.

What did you do exactly? If you followed all the right steps it would work.

Hi,

Ya... although there is not much information to go on, I would say...

Look at the permissions on your files and see if they're set-up right!

Otherwise maybe there isn't an index page in that directory.

Not sure...

Semi,

As others have said, we need more information.

For example -- do you see anything on your home page? If not, another possibility is that you haven't set your domain name servers to point to your new hosting account -- or they haven't propagated yet (this can take some time).

Please give us details.

Cheers,
Becky
