Hey, sorry to be a burden to everyone but I need some help. I'm fairly new at this and learning as I go. I have a script uploaded but I have no idea how to install it. The instructions it came with are very vague. Here they are:

"1) Create a MySQL database.

2) Unzip and upload all the files to your web server.

3) Navigate to the directory you uploaded the files. Usually this will be yourdomain.com.

4) Fill in the installer and let it run."

I am currently at number 3 and I have no idea what it means. Thanks in advance.

Where did you post the files on your account? To have them web-accessible, they need to reside somewhere in the public_html folder. If you put it directly there, then it would be in yourdomain.com. If you put it in a subfolder (example, public_html/folder), then you would navigate to yourdomain.com/folder.
