PostCard Viewer - how to, for complete dummies!

Question

I've found this HTML snippet at http://web.me.com/toad.hall/Demo_3/Postcard.html which would look great on a website I'm making. However, it's the first HTML snippet I've put in so far, so I'm a bit confused!
I know how to put the provided snippet into iWeb, but I don't understand the "URL to the index.html file that's created inside the slideshow folder on the hosting server" bit... Do I need to create a folder/index file on my FTP? And how to I then add the photos to the album in iWeb?
Please, treat me as a complete idiot & newcomer - I think I need the basics first!
Thanks,
greg

Do I need to create a folder/index file on my FTP
Yes.
Read this very very carefully :
If your postcard slideshow is in a folder titled PostcardViewer and you place it in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder the URL you would use in the code above would be http://web.me.com/MMeaccountname/SimpleViewerSS/PostcardViewer/index.html. The height and width on this example is 700 x 800.
but I don't understand the "URL to the index.html file that's created inside the slideshow folder on the hosting server" bit.
This is the URL to the index.html files that's created inside the slideshow folder on the hosting server :
http://web.me.com/MMeaccountname/SimpleViewerSS/PostcardViewer/index.html
Use you OWN URL to the server where you host your slideshow.
Instead of this part of the URL : web.me.com/MMeaccountname
Use this : www.yourowndomain.com/
