problem publishing to the web

[Avalanche]

Let me start by letting you know that I am using FrontPage 2000 with
winXP. I am new to using FrontPage and creating web pages. I created a
personal web page and I am having a problem publishing my site to the
server. I have webspace available through my ISP, Cox cable. I followed
the instructions given by FrontPage and by Cox's website
(http://support.cox.net/custsup/personal_pages/instructions.shtml) and it
appears that I was able to publish it no problem. Through Cox's website I
am able to see that the files are indeed on their server. When I try to
view my website though, http://members.cox.net/jamesclery/, I just get a
screen with info on getting started, the same thing I got before I published
it. Cox does support FrontPage and I have activated FrontPage server
extensions.
Also once I publish the pages I get a dialog box in FrontPage with a
link to view my site. When I select the link, I am asked to log in and then
I get a page with all of the files and folders that I published, but not a
web page. The address is also listed as FTTP: (or ftp instead of http:.
I have know idea what the problem could be and being inexperienced with
creating and publishing WebPages I have no idea where to start
troubleshooting. Cox's tech support for this is of no help at all. If
anyone can help or point me in the right direction for troubleshooting I
would appreciate it, maybe someone else who has a personal web page with Cox
cable.

Sometimes providers put up temporary web pages
called 'index.html' where there is a heirarchy
index.html comes first
index.htm comes next
default.html comes next
etc.
sometimes the heirarchy is alphabetical. If you can see
the extension and name through ftp, then you should be
able to change the name of your home page to match and
away you go.
Good luck
