Hi,
I tried posting this on the webhosting forum but it said that iam trying to enter a private forum and kept on asking me to log in every time.

Hence the post here. apologiese if this is not the place for the post.

Sorry if this is stupid qustion and way out.

I am new to web hosting, never done it before. I am working on my assignment for uni. and wanted to know if I can create multiple subdomains when I am hosted with a webhost.

I want to be able to do the following:
1. users can sign up and get a subdomain of their choice.
2. users are allocated a limited webspace
3. The access to file types need to be controlled. In the sense that users can only upload/download certain file types like html, htm, jpg, gif, zip etc.
4. Users can have forms that work only within their subdomain.
for example the domain name is www.example.com
the user signs up for [mysite.example.com...] where "mysite" is the subdomain.

the user can have a form at [mysite.example.com...]

This form should not affect the other subdomains hosted by users. Just in case someone screws up the entire site should not be down.

Is this possible?
if yes, any pointers on how I can go about getthing this done?
would the webhost help with setting this up?

Any good webhost I should consider for such a setup?

I am based in Melbourne, Australia, if this helps.

Thank you for your time and help with this.
