i am a very new user of cpanel. been told my files should be in index-php in the public-html folder. First, can't locate them. What am i supposed to be seeing. do i see my text there or just scripts. second, want to add cgi features,(c ounter and clock) but from what i gather, i need to insert the script on the page i want to add it to. frustrating!!!below is what i see in public-html. they are not in the index-html either
