 * ok so i deleted simple scripts……i went through the cPanel instructions on how
   to set up wordpress. I get tripped up right here (and i dont know why because
   its so straight forward) [http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/cpanel/](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/cpanel/)
   
   Run installation Upload all the WordPress files, including the file above, to
   the directory where you want it to be. It doesn’t have to be called anything 
   in particular – your choice. Let’s say I uploaded the files to a directory called‘
   blog’ – I would then use my browser to go to [http://www.example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php)
   and then you’ll see this screen:
 * Thats what it says – I dont get the upload part…..my stuff is already downloaded
   and extracted to the folders the instructions said to put them in – now what 
   am i missing? lol
