Your point? / is the directory seperator in a URL and in a URI. You cannot name a file with the / character as it is a reserved character which I think is what the original poster is trying to do.

For example:

www.google.com/sample

refers to a file called 'sample' in the root directory of the webserver (or to a directory called 'sample' but it would be a malformed URL in that case due to the missing trailing slash).

Now, the original poster's question is ambiguous. Does he wants to seperate his files in subdirectories (ie.: www.mysite.com/mydirectory/myfile/), does he want to have a domain to himself (ie.: www.mysite.com/ instead of room.freewebhosting.com/sites/users/mysite/) or does he simply doesn't understand that most FTP Servers are setup in a way that the webserver root is located in a subfolder of the FTP Root (ie.: /public_html/ and not /)?

Nagamasa, please do not reply uselessly when you have no knowledge of the subject.
