    make sure that index.html is deleted and you put your index.html (yes it has to be named that, [the first page].

    Re: how do i replace index.html with my site

    index.<extention> is always the first opened file from the folder

    i put in < extention > because index can have many formats

    index.php
    index.html
    index.dhtml
    index.jsp
    index.htm
    etc,

    hope this helps you ;)

    else you can always do "includes" in your index.

    Re: how do i replace index.html with my site

    Hi EmnBoA,

    In order for a site to display, it has to have at least one page. That page can have several extensions (as laeresh explained) but it must say "index."

    By deleting all the pages, what you've done is empty the site, which is why you're getting the 404 error.

    Does that make sense?

    cpanel -> filemanager -> web root -> new file

    type in "index.html"

    then edit it put your html code

    hope this helps -.^

    Re: how do i replace index.html with my site

    The extensions are somewhat confusing but index.html is given preference over index.php. So if you have to display a .php page or someother you can either delete the index.html or can change something in the htacess. But the latter one I am not sure, so don't try it without someone's help.
