Publishing

[Guest]

I have a web site published at GoDaddy. The last time I updated two of the
pages and published them using the option "Publish only pages that have
changed", my index.htm page is changed to default.asp. This just recently
started happening after I upgraded to XP home and Frontpage 2002.

The default page on the server depends on what your host has set it to be.

So index.htm, home.htm, default.htm etc are typical, as is default.asp - for
Active Server Pages - so is your page using asp?

This is caused by a setting on the Server and has nothing to do with you
upgrading to either XP Home or FP2002.

It has always been index.htm. The last time this happened I had to redesign
the whole site and publish. Now it has done it again. I did call GoDaddy and
they couldn't help, said it was on my end.

This is a problem on the GoDaddy server, where they have default.asp set as the first document in
the default document list.

You have two options, if GoDaddy will not change the default document setting for your web site:
Rename index.htm to default.asp in FP or open your index.htm file in FP and do a save as
default.asp, this should solve your problem, but you must remember to save as default.asp any time
you change index.htm
