Thanks, I hadn't done that but now that i have it doesn't seem to have done anything.
I changed the permission to 777 as well just in case but still no joy
Have i missed something or should i try installing from the beginning again?
Thanks for everyones help.
I've got it working. I uninstalled and started again. It was a school boy error...instead of uploading the contense of the 'upload' file I uploaded the whole upload file! Also the info on placing the .php was useful, as a beginner it might have taken me a while to figure that out!
