Re: index.htm page not coming up

Well, support sorted it out straight away but they haven't said what they did!

The files don't seem to have changed, it is still index.htm

I have asked what I did wrong - will let you know if I get an answer.

Glad you got it sorted, Corporal!!

Thanks, you're all good folks!

Here's the response from support:

"Not sure, it should of worked, I just put in an .htaccess file
with a command line telling the browser to go straight to
index.htm, it should have worked the way you had it."

It may be of help to others in future.

Re: index.htm page not coming up

Just a newbie here, but I think this may be a clue as well. You have an index manger in the cpanel and you can choose which ones are viewable to the public and can lock out certain index.htm, and index.html. Some cpanels require you to change the status there to actually publish a page and while i havent seen that as a requirement here, it could be a solution for future solutions when you arent building in blue voda or importing thru the cpanel. It might be when you just upload the pages via ftp, that you have to go in there and make it viewable.
