Default FAQ mod

I downloaded a free faq mon here
http://www.xcartmods.co.uk/
I can not get it to connect to my faq.php. When I click on the menu this is desplayed in address bar http://www.tools-rvsupplies/faq.php and says page not found. In foxfire it doesn't work ether but if I go to the address bar and click it again it will go through. Here is the install instructions, any ideas? This was writen by PhilJ and he said there was nothing wrong.

1) Upload all files to your X-Cart root directory (keep the directory structure).

2) Add this code to your /skin1/common_templates.tpl template...
Just before {else} at the bottom of the page add...
{* FAQ *}
{elseif $main eq "_faq_"}
{include file="customer/faq.tpl"}
{* FAQ *}

3) chmod 666 faq_config.php (make faq_config.php writable)

4) Have your database details ready - check config.php if you are unsure of them.
Run www.yoursite.com/faq_install.php
Follow the instructions, REMEMBER TO DELETE OR RENAME faq_admin.php WHEN THE INSTALL HAS COMPLETED !

5) Login to your FAQ admin...
www.yoursite.com/faq_admin.php
...and customise your FAQs.

6) Add a link to the FAQ Admin...
In /skin1/admin/admin_menu.tpl
add...
<BR><A href="http://{$config.Company.company_website}/faq_admin.php" class="VertMenuItems">{$lng.lbl_faq} {$lng.lbl_management}</A>

7) Add a link to the FAQs customer side...
In /skin1/help.tpl template...
add...
<BR><A href="http://{$config.Company.company_website}/faq.php" class="VertMenuItems">{$lng.lbl_faq}</A>

Default Re: FAQ mod

I am not a fan of this style of FAQ. Let me tell you why: I am the type who likes to read a site's entiore FAQ in a real Q&A format. Forcing me to go back to the FAQ index after every answer is to me a PITA. So, I simply wrote my own FAQ page. Use anchors.

I have been using a faq out of x-cart structure and should go back to that.
