[QUOTE="Psionicist, post: 2574734, member: 1874"] If the current website is PHP and MySQL I can recommend you "install" phpMyAdmin on the current server if it's not already available. It makes it very easy to backup the database. You can probably create a "SQL Dump". This will save everything from the DB to file so it can be imported somewhere else in the future. The static files is the easy part, just download to your local computer and upload to the new server. Then import the database (with phpMyAdmin perhaps). Version and settings problem between webserver software / database software / etc can be a problem. For example an extremely common PHP problem is how you get the variables from an URL, such as http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?[highlight]p=2571188[/highlight]#post2571188 sometimes $p works, sometimes you have to use $_GET['p']. Other than small problems, moving a webpage should be fairly easy. [/QUOTE]
