Publishing changed home page and the old one is still there

[Veronique]

Hi, I am trying to update the home or index page of my website:
www.artherapie.biz but it still shows the old one on the remote server but
everything looks fine when I look at it via frontpage before publishing.
Thanks for helping me!

I've often found problems with frontpage, of which this is one. You
can delete the page from the server and then publish the new page.
This will definitely get rid of the old one.

Thank you, but i dont know how to do this, I am a real beginner, could you
explain how to delete the page (I know each server is different...) ? Thanks

What is the file name for your home page?
If it is index.htm rename it to index.html
Let FrontPage update hyperlinks when prompted and then republish the entire site.

Thank you, I had done that before. I actually renamed it home.html, hope this
is a good idea and republished the whole thing. I think I will give it a bit
of time in case of delay and check tomorrow. Thanks for your help and
availability. I might be back here tomorrow in case it didnt work!

Sometimes if you Refresh or Reload the page (dependent on what Browser you
are using) it will show up.

Renaming it home.html is not a good idea unless your host has that as a
valid index page name.

On another note; using Java Hover buttons is definitely not a good idea. A
lot of people don't have JRE (Java Runtime) installed on their machines (and
ones that do may only have it enabled for things they need it for - not
browsing the internet) - if Java is not installed then they will only see
disabled gray boxes where your buttons are.

Home.html is not a good idea.

It needs to be named what ever the server requires as the default page,
which is normally index.html or default.html

After you have gone through FIle > Publish Site.. and connected etc, you
have you have the two file lists in the Publish Site window; local and
remote. Select the file in the remote server's list (usually the list on
the right-hand side) and press the "Delete" key.
