I bought the domain www.ripoffthemovie.com a while ago from freewebs.com. I didn't host it there because I knew I could do that on my schools server, and that 40mb limit sucks anyway.
My site is now up on the internet, but not yet with the www.ripoffthemovie.com URL, it's still available on my school's URL which is a typical school hosted URL (gay and way too long). So my question is: How do I put the domain I bought on the site that is on my school's server?

Freewebs has a upload thing, so am I supposed to make a redirector on there to direct the user to the site? If so, how do I maintain the URL as www.ripoffthemovie.com once it is redirected to the site?

If you don't understand my question, I would like my .com URL to work the same way as cjb.net or a .tk works only with the .com ending obviously.

If you still don't understand what I'm asking for, it is probably because I really suck at everything that has to do with servers and URLs. I'm a dumbass when it comes to this.

Any help would be more than appreciated.
Thanks

wow thanks SCP, but how do you do it? With some kind of a HTML code or what? Anyway, I appreciate your offer and I will pm you the URL as soon as I have pressed "add reply".
