how to create a .htaccess

Your service provider may have your access restricted where you cannot create hidden files (that's what the period in front of the name does, assuming your host is running some version of unix).

Normally, files are renamed to add the period at the beginning either via direct command line access or via the renaming feature of your ftp program. If you don't know how to do either of those, your best bet is to contact your host and ask them to create the file with the information we told you to put in it.
