How do I Direct url from my domain to server and run game

Hello,

May have missed something, but every time I try and run the html build on my server through ftp, all it does is open so I can see the html code.

What do I need to do, or what do I need to change in the html or manifest, so that it will run it instead of just opening to view the code...??

Please help?, am keen to see it work.

You need to change the HTTP Header "Content-Type" to "text/html".

[quote:2778tj71]Mate, where do I change the header? In the index.html or in the Construct 2 project? Can't work out where to put it in the index.html, am not use to html, am a c# coder. Could you please elaborate a little?

It is not in Construct. You specified that you are running your own server. Which server?

Filezilla FTP server on my own pc.

Filezilla FTP server on my own pc.

That is not a web server, lol. You should look at using Apache or some other webserver.

WAMP stack: https://bitnami.com/stack/wamp/installer (You get PHP and MySQL, which you may not need too)

There is a difference?? Lol, I am a noob when it comes to web stuff and ftp stuff. I can write c# code like no tomorrow, but when it comes to ftp and https and web stuff, I am, well, learning hehe. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Wow this web server stuff is a whole new thing for me lol. I've been too busy with my head in the code to see what's around these days, I spent 2 years learning c# and am only getting back in the game now. I want to make a webpage for my game development business lol. Always more to learn, which is why I love development.

Yea, file servers serve files. Not web pages. That is why your browser interprets it as a file, because the HTTP Header for Content Type probably says: "file/text" or something similar.

Oh well. I'll get it soon lol. Maybe after all I wont need to buy Dreamweaver. I will be wrapped to see this work. I want to make a site and link it to my domain if i can. I am confused about all this url forwarding and etc. And dns's, but have only been at it for a week or two, I will get it soon I hope and then I can start making the actual site lol.

I made a webpage years ago with construct and couldn't get it to work then either lol. I should have asked someone.

How do I give you rep or give you a correct answer or something? lol. Or you's don't do that here?

I can't see anywhere lol. So I guess ah, that's it lol.

OMG IT WORKS!!!!! You are a champion dude! Probably easy for you, now I know how its done, easy for me too! YAY!!!!

BIG BIG 8>)

Np. Glad it works for you.
