Changing permissions to a text file...?

Hi all.
I need to change the permissions to a text file I uploaded, but I can't figure out how to do that.
Can someone please help me?
You will need to be somewhat specific as I am a nOOb.

Thanks!

What program are you using to upload your files? Or are you using webFTP?

If you are familiar with unix commands, you can log into shell and use command chmod to change the permission to a file.

Or

You can change file permission using WebFTP. First go to DH panel --> Domains --> Manage Domains --> WebFTP and navigate to your file. Simply select the file and click chmod at the top right corner. Next will be what you are looking for tongue

Okay, thanks for your assitance all!
