My server start up page has to be index.htm not index.asp?

Hello


I am uploading to a server for the first time.
I believe that my server will not point to .asp pages as the start page, only .htm
is this correct?

I wanted my index.asp page displayed first from the web-site by default, but have been told that I need say, an index.htm which then points to my index.asp page.

Is there a way that I can use my index.asp page as my start page?


Thanks

generally it does accept index.asp as the default page. it can be set up in the server but if you do not have access to the server settings directly you cannot set it.

the default for IIS is "Default.asp", not "index.asp"

- if you HAVE access to the server, then change the default.asp to your index.asp

- if you DON'T HAVE access to the server, then i suggest you try this.

either in your index.htm or default.asp, place this code above your <title> tag.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.yourdomain.com/index.asp">

remarks:
-> 0 is in seconds. you can change this to any positive numbers.
-> beware, not all browsers support meta tag.
