The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000
This article was previously published under Q219773

SYMPTOMS

When you publish a server-based web to a disk-based web, your Index.html file is changed to Index.htm.

CAUSE

FrontPage 2000 renames the Index.html file to Index.htm. In FrontPage 2000, a home page should be named Index.htm in a disk-based web.

RESOLUTION

If your home page needs to be named Index.html, open the disk-based web in FrontPage 2000, and change the name from Index.htm to Index.html. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. On the File menu, click Open Web.
  2. Navigate to the disk-based web, and click Open.
  3. In the Views panel, click Folders.
  4. Right-click Index.htm, and click Rename.
  5. Type Index.html for the name of the page, and press ENTER.
  6. When asked whether you want to change the name, click Yes.
  7. A dialog box similar to the following may appear:
    There are xx pages that have hyperlinks to this page.

    Do you want to update these pages so that the
    hyperlinks will not be broken?
  8. Click Yes.
