I tried to access my website, but Firefox threw the error: 403 Forbidden, you don't have the permissions to view.

My website - Mousenstein.com - is under construction w/Dreamweaver + Flash. I uploaded my files to my server. I opened Firefox and entered the URL:

http://www.mousenstein.com

The error "403 Forbidden" appeared, and ... You do not have the permissions to access.

I have tried to upload my site countless times, but never successfully - it is a huge headache. That said, I have never gotten the "403 Forbidden - no permissions" before.

All other failures threw the error "404, can not locate the URL "/" on this server.

Any help will be enormously appreciated.

P.S. : Are there permissions preferences on Firefox? I found one under Tools Menu, but it didn't seem to address my problem.

Thanks

I get the same thing with Firefox, IE8, Opera, and Safari. It isn't a Firefox only problem.

Are you new to that webhosting service?
Have you ever uploaded web pages to that same web hosting service previously, pages that worked after an upload?
Are those pages listed as "public" pages in your web hosts control panel?

My suggestion is to "download" your homepage and associated files & images from your PC, up to the server, using your web hosts control panel and see how that works.

Beyond that, I suspect that you might have missed an important setting in Dreanweaver for uploading to the web host's server. You might try asking about this issue at a Dreamweaver support forum.

Thanks for your reply, ed-meister:

I've had my hosting service for years [Your-Site.com] and have uploaded countless pages, but never received the 403 error.

Part of the problem is with Dreamweaver - somehow the root-folder address of my site has gotten screwed up and the browsers have been sending a 404 error.

I tried to attach an image of that error, but ....

I'll try your suggestions re. web host's control panel.
