Geeze, I have seen everyone with wordpress. I wanted it as well, but I have this slight feeling that I have to download it. Is that true? If it is, how?

(sorry, I didn't know where else to put this.)

Yes, you need to download it. You can do so from the wordpress site: http://wordpress.org
You'll need php and mysql to have it running Smiley

First you have to download it, then you have to have a domain (or e hosted at a domain) that provides you with a MySQL and PHP. Good luck!

Woah, that totally confused me. Do you have any suggestions on a domain that has MySQL or PHP?

Really, you can't really view PHP files because it's an extension which could only be edited with Notepad, Wordpad, etc. All I can say is that you can edit the files as you keep them really. =P

You can't view PHP files without uploading them first.  

As for MySQL help, you should ask your host to create an account for you.  Using wordpress is quite simple as long as the MySQL is set up correctly.  I remembered when I tried installing it, I had trouble because my host didn't set up my MySQL account correctly.

If your host has Fantastico in her Cpanel, s/he can install it automatically, actually.  So you can always ask s/he to set it up for you that way.  But remember, be nice about it when asking ;D
