Hi Peoples I have just changed over to an asp enviorment, what should the home page of a web site be if it is using asp? Is it index or default or something else?
Thank You in advance

Generally, it's defalt.asp or index.asp. You can define the default document in IIS. Here's a link [microsoft.com]

it can be whatever you want it to be. there is no hard and fast rule about this.

Normally the host will configure the server to check a list of possible pages - index.htm, default.htm, index.asp, etc. I just had a client move a site to a new host and complain that the home page wasn't working - it turns out that there was an obsolete default.htm in the root directory. The new server loaded the ancient default.htm before index.htm, breaking the site; deleting the file cleared up the problem immediately.
