| 26 | + <li> |
| 27 | + Download the latest zipfile from the <a href="http://formtools.org/download/" target="_blank">downloads page</a> |
| 28 | + and unzip the files into a folder on your computer. This file is a package containing various essential |
| 29 | + modules and themes so you can get the most out of the script, right out of the box. But you can always add and |
| 30 | + remove modules/themes later. |
| 31 | + </li> |
| 32 | + <li> |
| 33 | + With an FTP client, upload the files to your web server. The folder you upload them to must be accessible via a |
| 34 | + URL on your site, e.g. <b>http://www.yoursite.com/formtools/</b>. Unless you want it to be the entire website, |
| 35 | + you'll want to put it in a subfolder. |
| 36 | + </li> |
