    Hi Elevatorman,

    It would depend on your web server.

    Most sites are configured to recognise index.htm or default.htm and a few other filenames as being the page to show when the site is accessed.

    What were you wanting to name your page?

    Hi,
    I have two sites one is on my ISp providers site with now scriptings support and one on my domain.
    when I build a site in Designer and export site to a directory I have on home computer for saving wroking demos. I name the main file something appropriate for instance I created site for fire and Ice guild so I named the file Fite.htm then when it exported all referenced Fire.html. When I upload to my personal site I just FtP'd the Fire.htm and the folders containing its files.
    When I want to view online i just give the address to the folder on server.
    http://yoursite/folder_name/fire.htm and I can ask for opinions using that.
