Strange Hosting Credit Losses and various other problems

[switch 0]

hi guysi just got my free web hosting (and it's cool, thanks). before i applied i had somewhere between 62 and 63 credits. then i applied: the first time i entered an invalid password, so i tried again and it all worked. then i logged back onto Xisto.com, to find i had 1.91 days remaining. i then posted a few times and now i have around 4 credits. please tell me if this is normal. if it isn't, it would be much appreciated if you could restore my lost credits.also after uploading files to my website (and changing index.html) i went to my site only to find it hadn't changed at all. i searched the cPanel documentation for a 'flush' command but there didn't appear to be one. i am still seeing the default site, and am wondering if this is because something is wrong, or because this is still stored in the server's cache or what.Any advice/insight would be appreciated into each of these matters.thanks guys.

yes it is normal you lose all your credits except for 2 thats why the best thing to do is get the packaage you want with the min credits that you need then start boosting up your credits.

delete index.html file in your WWW directory. Index.html enjoys a higher priority than index.htm. "htm" and "html" makes a big diffrence even though they both represent the same type of file.thanks.

you will upload your web pages to cpanel--->file manager-->public_html.then you will got your pages publishe on the site.Good Luckguangdian

yeah thanks heaps guys. i was changing the index.html in the root directory. problem easily solved by moving stuff into the public_html directory.thanks for all your support, one of the many things that make Xisto.com great!
