By default LittleEgg Software creates three directories
within your website managed location. Each of these
directories applies to specific responsibilities, below is a
description of each directory.

entire website. All website files should be uploaded to this

the following
File names : index, home, or
default
File extensions : HTM, HTML,
CFM, ASP, PHP
database - This directory is used to store all Access
based databases, and is also used to upload any MS SQL or
MySQL database files to be used.

for your websites activity. These files are stored in the W3C
