Did you set DB name and password already?
Do you want to know what to do in order to upload to server?
If everything is finished on DB, do you want to show DB contents on web page?
Then, make sub folder in htdocs and link html or php pages.

I want to make site in Dreamweaver and upload it to the server.I created database in XAMPP and work in dreamwever,everything is ok.But,i am interested,now when i created and everything is ok,how do i transfer that entire site on the server?

If you set and finish XAMPP completely, you finished Server installation.
All you have to do at next stage would be to hire your own domain name.

but,which file i should upload to the server?where is it?

[sckoh]

XAMPP folder is your local server.
Therefore, you need to connect local server to internet.
You can do that if you get your own domain name else, use hosting company.

avantguardia,

1. have you register a domain or host?
2. if so, ask your hosting admin, since different hosting company will different setting. Also ask how to create DB on the server and how to access phpmyadmin on the server.
3. use FTP sotware to upload your files: filezilla, cute FTP, wsftp, etc.
4. configure your DB name, password, DB server on your connection.
