is this one!
(probably).. but I am hoping NOT as I have no bloody clue what I am doing!

OK!.. I have XOOPS on my site wickedhearts.com and only have 15meg of webspace, Obviously this isn't much so I have an account with another ISP who gave me unlimited webspace.

Can I run the site from wickedhearts BUT when people use the forum and attach jpg's, gifs etc etc have them upload to a section on my free web space? I am using the newbb 2 forum mod.

and I know how to set the upload folder on my other space so that people can upload files.

any help at all?...

How much are you paying at wickedhearts.com, hosting with 100s of megabites of space is pretty cheap now. I would suggest finding a host that offers more space than trying to direct files between two websites.

the wickedhearts I am paying £14 per year, the free space I am getting free due to them being my ISP but, they don't support MySQL database's..

What if I stuck the XOOPS site onto my free space and just use my wickedhearts space as the SQL holder?

would that work?..

No, the database would need to be physically connected to the webserver. My hosting uses a remote database server but the two machines are physically connected. I do not know what kind of problems would come from using another web space for uploads. I truly hope someone else knows.
