Hi All,

When I publish a site using frontpage, the host insists on renaming index.php as index.html.

This does not happen when I publish the same page to other servers.

My host provider suggested that it could be a direct admin setting, or that at worst, the learneds in this forum might be able to tell me what might be happening and where the problem lies.

Thanks

Ian
 
Hello,

I couldn't really say. I know that Frontpage probably doesn't know what php is, but why it would be renaming it, I'm not sure. I'd just use the Filemanager to rename the file back.

Thanks John.

I suspect it might be one of those "undocumented features" in Frontpage, but I'm damned if I can find anything anywhere on how to make it stop. The renaming thing is a pain, but for now, that is the solution.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Ian
