    Hi, I'm very interested in the coop program but cannot get the adds to show up on my page. Because of this i cannot validate. I belive the problem is because I'm not sure where to find, or creat the .htaccess - I cannot creat a file with no name and the extention .htaccess. I'm running an apache server on winxp - www.KrazFrame.com - any help? tyler@krazframe.com

    Account not not yet activated. | Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-09-18 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance). Validate/Calculate Weight Now

    Whewre are you putting the code on your pages? It doesn't even show on the source

    Don't know much about servers, but does this mean that your site is ASP?

    .htaccess is not an extension. Rather, in Unix, it's a hidden file called htaccess

    I'm not sure how you can create a .htaccess file in Windows environment. I tried on my WinXP but failed to...:eek:

    I can see the raw code, you need to be parsing php for it to show

    I cannot help you with a quick fix, but:
    you need a PHP plugin for your apache server. go to
    httpd.apache.org and www.php.net

    ok, I got PHP working, and I'm praising all htm and html pages as php - now if you go to the site

    http://www.krazframe.com/temp.htm

    you will see its just blank,

    when i remove the "ad_network_ads_387.txt" file i get:

    You must set the ad_network_ads_387.txt file to be writable (check file name as well).

    so whats next?
