    be a little more elaborate, please.

    do you mean how to get your files up? just go to file manager, and a extra tab or window will come up. click on the little folder left of where it says "www", that is the root of your site, or what you see when you go to www.(yoursite).com

    Or if you mean actually make you website, then you can't do it from CPanel.

    You'd have to hand code it using HTML or use a software package such as Macromedia Dreamweaver. Or if you just mean upload it, then follow instructions above.

    Ahh - KK.

    You could try their user manual. The official one can be found:

    http://www.cpanel.net/docs/cpanel/

    or for more specific information, go here:

    http://www.cpanel.net/docs/cpanel/Uploadin...o_your_site.htm

    If you want a Flash tutorial, go here:

    http://www.cpanel.net/docs/cpanel/demo.htm

    I hope this helps you, good luck :).

    Edit: You replyed before I did, lol.

    Did you upload a .zip file? If so, you shouldn't have done (unless you want users to download it). Unzip it, then upload the contents.

    The pages you made "aboutme.html, portfolio.html, etc" should all be in the www folder.

    I told him last night on MSN how to fix this and the files should go in public_html and all that www does is take you to the public_html folder anyway, and it work's for him now :P

    Dude, don't use cpanel to upload, use your FTP browser instead, it's much easyer. I use FlashFXP, its just drag & drop. Try google.
