Creating new site on existing web hosting server

Hello, I have only just joined so forgive me if there is a FAQ for this, I have done a search but not found a conclusive answer.

 

I am planning to rebuild my website using osCommerce. I have an existing site which I coded myself with Frontpage which uses Frames and Google Cart javascript buttons. This site sits in the www.mysite.com/htdocs folder of my web hoster. Three questions please

 

1. What is the best way to create my new site with the same domain name without my customers inadvertently finding it until it is complete.

 

2. When I am ready how do I move it into the root of htdocs so there is no redirect when a customer lands on it

 

3. I use 2 Domain names, a shortened version that points to the original longer version. Which ever Domain a customer uses all the pages in his browser display the domain he started off with even though there is only one set of files on the server, will this still work with osCommerce and MySQL

 

Thanks again
