I am using DW MX. I have created a FrameSet, which contains a top, left &
main. This all works fine.

I am left with one problem, which I have spent many hours trying to resolve,
without success...

The web site starts at index.htm Whilst developing the web site, I have put
a "Click here to enter the site" link on Index, which when clicked, links to
FrameSet1.htm - which display the frameset, and the user accesses the entire
site from there.

MY PROBLEM - I don't want the user to have to click "Click here to enter the
site" . I want the frameset display as soon as www.sitename.com is typed
(Which goes to index.htm).

How do I get the FrameSet displayed from the start.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Garry

Rename the file to index.html, or configure the server to use FrameSet1.htm
as a directory index.
