SMF Version: SMF 1.0.7
Hi everyone
I hope you guys can help me because I need all the help that I can get.
I'm new @ simple machine and started with the installing process but got stuck on the "Uploading SMF" part. I use Frontpage so I dragged the files under a file. I open up the install.php page and it gives me a bunch of codes.
On the instruction: "If the first page comes up with a dialog requesting FTP information this is because you are running on a Unix-like server."
It doesn't look like I'm running on a unix-like server but it looks like a pure html format.
It doesn't help much when I try to convert it to a html file, it's all jibberish.
I have no idea what to do next. I try reading the instuctions over and over again and wonder if I should CHMOD'ed to 777 on the files, etc. (What is CHMOD'ed?)
HELP!!!

Please use a proper FTP program rather than Frontpage.
Like I said, I'm pretty new at this.
What kind of FTP and SQL programs that I should use?
Thanks.
