default.asp ?

tyleri · Oct 22, 2002

hi - i have an asp page that I want to use in place of the "index.html" page. what do i name the file so it will be loaded up if you type in the url of

http://www.omnisoul.com

I type in

http://www.omnisoul.com

and it shows the page, but no asp data.

I type in

http://www.omnisoul.com/defalut.asp

and it shows the asp data.

What do i have to change?

Sorry i'm a complete fool. I also uploaded the Index.html file, so it loaded that first. heh. duh!

Hi maybe I can help u out.
I have 2 alternatives.
1. you can change/add the default page in your IIS into default.asp

2. you create a file index.html which the content is below

============== index.html ====================
<script language="javascript">
window.location "default.asp"; </script>
<html>
<body>
</body>

</html>
==============================================
index.html will read the script which refers to default.asp

I hope this will work .....

JJ26's first suggestion (change it in IIS) is the better option. It doesn't rely on client side code being enabled.

Another alternative is to use the refresh meta tag. Add the example below to your <HEAD> section.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=default.asp">
