Default asp causing problem?

[Guest]

I imported a website from the net that I created using an easy website
creator. All the pages look great and have uploaded fine except for the home
page. In Frontpage, index.htm is updated and when I preview in the browser
all the changes were made, but when I post it to the web, the only page that
doesn't post with changes is the home page. I'm not sure if I wasn't supposed
to delete a file called default.asp after I imported it from the web to
Frontpage--I didn't think I needed that file and that's the only thing I can
think of that would be the problem. If anyone wants to take a look at it, the
website is www.bluwateradventures.com and you can see that the other pages
have different navigation, etc., but the home page is the original one. help!!

True, I get two different "home" pages if I put this url in
www.bluwateradventures.com I get a different page from this Url:
www.bluwateradventures.com/index.htm and I presume the second one here is
the one you're asking about, as in why is it not coming up when you browse
to www.bluwateradventures.com (dropping the /index.htm from the end)

It has something (I think) to do with what the server admin has set as your
default home page when you put in the url such as www.bluwateradventures.com
it goes to an index file which could be *any* of the following examples:
default.htm, default.asp, home.asp, home.htm, index.html, index.htm,
index.htm etc

You say you deleted default.asp - which I suspect is what your server's
default page should be, not in this case "index.htm".

So rename index.htm to default.asp, and publish default.asp and I think it
will fix the problem, you may need to redo hyperlinks to the main page
(default.asp) but this shouldn't be too much work.
