The first image shows my FTP application open and ready to go. Open up your favorite FTP program, we are using Transmit for Mac OS X here. The window pane on the left is one of my local hard drives that contains the download API Code in a folder called tabseleven. Your download may have a version number appended like tabseleven_1.0.1, meant to help you keep your assets under control. If you choose to run multiple versions on your web server then make sure to add that to the path on the iPhone App Preferences. I just keep one online so took off the version number.

The window pane on the right is one of my dedicated CentOS 5 web servers. You can run any OS you want as long as it supports some basic PHP or other language to run a simple action router file. I keep a directory at root of most of my sites called api which is short for application programming interface. That is where I would write code that connects other services to my website(s). Upload the tabseleven folder on the left to the directory of your choosing. Again adjust the URL path in the mobile device settings if other then my suggestion.

The second image shows the api directory open on the web server and the tabseleven directory nested inside along some other non related applications.

The path for this would be:
/api/tabseleven

This could just as easily be:
/clients/apps/tabseleven

Make it anything you want as long as it is accessible by a web browser.

Now lets go see what's in the api.
