Where am i going wrong?
I am trying to upload a webpage which i designed in 1st Page 2000. I saved the webpage in my documents and renamed it index, its filepath is now C:\My Documents\ND CAD Website\index.htm.

In Fileman File Management section, under Web directory are the following headings: - Stats, Index.htm (which contains my webpage after I uploaded it from My Docs, minus images) and Index.html which was already in the list and contains all the Personalise your Home Page stuff.

Have I gone wrong somewhere, i keep reading that my webpage file must be called index.html. Does this mean i have done the right thing renaming it Index? It is now called Index.htm though, hence the confusion. I saved it as a complete web page (.html/*htm) in My Docs and can't see how else to call it index.html. When i saved it, .htm was added to the end not .html.

When i go to www.nd-cad.co.uk/index or index.htm, i can view the webpage minus images (how do i get those back on the site?), but when i go to www.nd-cad.co.uk or www.nd-cad.co.uk/index.html, i still see the personalise your home page information. Ive tried to upload my webpage into index.html but it has added it to the Web list rather than to Index.html.

Could somebody explain what I have done wrong and also, can I edit my website once it is online? I put a 'please contact...' followed by an email address on the site but when i click on the email address, it does not insert it into the To: field on the email. Why not?

Can anyone else view my site at www.nd-cad.co.uk/index?

If so, please tell me where i am going wrong as I am completely new to web page design and am finding FTP even more difficult!!!!

Cheers
