Hi,

Here is a tricky question!

I have created a default.htm file that we use when we access our sharepoint site. We are loading a top frame with information from an intranet (top frame), and one frame ("main-frame") where the sharepoint site loads.. See example:
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Test</TITLE>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html;charset=UTF-8>
<META content="Test" name=Test>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET rows="82,4*" border="0">
<FRAME src=" border="0" scrolling="no" name="header" id="header"> <-- Loads the information from the Intranet in a top frame

<FRAME src="default.aspx" border="0" name="content" id="content"> <--- Loads the Sharepoint site in the "main frame"
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>

Then when going to a subsite you have the link that says "Up to site" and it points to by default. When clicking that it automatically loads the default.htm file and that causes the top frame to load again so you will have two topframes showing.

Is there any way to edit that the "Up to parent" site link points to a default.aspx file? instead of just the root.

When opening the default.aspx I can't see any way to edit that, unless you choose to view the source when looking at the page in a webbrowser, then I can see a reference to the "up to parent site", but that line is only visible after you have loaded the page in a browser and choose to view the source.

Any one have any ideas on how to solve this?

Ofcourse one way of doing it would be to open the site in frontpage, but tried that and Frontpage messed up the site for some reason and the other links like "home" stopped working.

So any ideas or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks!

Hello again!

I got a tip from a person to change the Default Content page in IIS 6.0 to be able to load the default.aspx file instead of Default.htm (which is causing me a headache :) if you read my other post in this thread you will know what I mean.)

I tried changing the order of the files, but that does not seem to help at all, the .htm file is still loaded before the default.aspx.. Even if I decide to remove the Default.htm from the content file list, it still loads the .htm file before the .aspx...anyone know why?
I have restarted both the IIS and the server.

Doesn't SharePoint use that function at all? or is there a hidden feature somewhere ;)

Any hints or tips are very welcome :)

Cheers,
Thomas
