Okay, a few links -- here's the Wordpress installation help page:

And here is the 'Famous 5 Minute Install:'

Now, in each of those you'll see numerous references to SQL databses and Apache and various other esoteric terms.

When I installed WordPress, I didn't know what an SQL database was. Now, I still don't know what an SQL database is. I just read the guides and bluffed my way through and got lucky.

That said, though, there is a group of people who *know* what an SQL database is, what it eats, and where it builds its nests. They will install, FOR FREE, WordPress on your domain, just because they're trying to promote the use of Wordpress. You can find them at:

I thought I could step through at least part of the process for installing WordPress and give you a step by step, but I already have the maximum allowed number of SQL database thingies so I can't do that, and if I delete them I figure I'll lose all my posts.

I do like WordPress. Once you get it set up, you just post away, no messing about with databases or anything else. And since it lives on your site, it's fast and convenient.

What happens when you click on Fantastico, and then click on Install Wordpress? My memory might be jogged as something specific.

Sorry I can't be more helpful. But if *I* got the stuff to work, that means a circus monkey could do it. I'll see if I can find one of those. I work with several.

Good luck! Let me know how it's going, okay?
