    Hi, I can't access my pages following the setting of ads. Not sure what went wrong as I followed the setup guideline (I think). There may be some weird clashes as my site is in HTML, but uses .htaccess to redirect to PHP files. If anyone can help I will be grateful. The URL is www*accession*co*uk. THanks

    I now get an error saying

    Warning: file_get_contents(http://ads.digitalpoint.com/network.php?s=accession.co.uk&type=text&color=D7EEF4): failed to open stream: Connection timed out in /home/accessionuk/public_html/ad_network.php on line 35

    Hope that makes sense to someone. Thanks

    Sounds like your server can't access the ad server for whatever reason (maybe DNS issues or routing problems).

    Not that I know of... not without getting into the server itself.

    I am going to pass it onto the hosting support guys since I can't get this figured out. Is there anything specific I should mention/request or get them to check out?

    Thanks for being patient with the newbie.

    All sorted. Had to ask host for Firewall changes.
