Curt, you mentioned that the 'homepage' file must be called index.html or
index.htm. I guess my first thought would be to check and see what name you
saved you file as, when working in Front Page.
Second, you mentioned that you were unable to upload via Front Page, so it
was going to have you use FTP. How did you accomplish this? Which app did
you use? Are you certain that if you did successfully FTP the files, that
they got into the right directory? It could be that you do have an
index.htm file, but just loaded into the wrong directory.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Allan B.
