Problems with getting site started

[Hot Rod]

I made a little test page for my site to see if uploading the index.html into the /htdocs would work and I would get a webpage up and running. Well I made a simple little page with a pic on there and uploaded it as "index.html" and sent it to the /htdoc folder. When it uploaded it sent the /image file with it and the accompanied picture in the file. But when I type in my web address I still get the standard powweb.com "site under construction." Am I doing something wrong or missing something. I'm using cute ftp to upload my files. I've already uploaded several movie files and the picture that was uploaded with the "index.html" and they all open and download fine. I'm using microsoft frontpage that came with my windows XP. I can't use frontpage's publish feature either, keeps saying something about the address not being compatible. Does anyone have any insight on this so I can get started?

* The Under Construction page may be named "index.htm" which it's picking up before your "index.html". Sign on live and delete the index.htm file or rename your home page index.htm.

* The FrontPage HTTP Publish Web feature will not work with your temporary URL. Wait about two days until you can access your site with the regular domain name.

Note - it's /htdocs, not /htdoc...
