Hi, When i FTP in cuteftp is showing me this path: /usr163/home/r/y/ryanknig/public_html/BWH-Ads-Images
and i am using this in my php script: $UserUploadDir="/usr163/home/r/y/ryanknig/public_html/BWH-Ads-Images"; I tried to cut out the public_html too but it does not seem to be working.... Any ideas? I can off course write to the hosting company but what exactly do i ask them anyway?
