   can anyone tell me how to install WP so that it runs on http://www.mydomain.com/blog as other instructions give the url as mydomain.com/blog (without the www) this will cause me canonisation issues.

   DO I put it in public_html in a new folder called blog??

   Any advice?

   Yes, you'd install in a folder called "blog" in public_html.

   But... I really need to ask what you meant by:

   this will cause me canonisation issues

   because according to Wikipedia and dictionary.com, canonisation means declaring a dead person a saint.

   I think what he's asking is how to get the www. in front of his URL.

   If your webserver is properly configured (for the most part) both

   http://www.mydomain.com/blog
   and
   http://mydomain.com/blog

   will resolve to the same place.

   So take the advice from the previous post, and then try it with and without the www, you should see the same result on both.
