Default Documents
For your site to load automatically when
visited your account must include (in the
root) one of the document types that we
have designated as 'index' pages.
These document types are as follows :
| 1) |
default.aspx |
|
2) |
index.aspx |
|
3) |
default.asp |
|
4) |
index.asp |
| 5) |
default.shtml |
|
6) |
index.shtml |
|
7) |
default.wml |
|
8) |
index.wml |
| 9) |
default.html |
|
10) |
index.html |
|
11) |
default.htm |
|
12) |
index.htm |
This is also the correct order of priority
so if you have pages in your site root called,
for example, index.asp and index.htm then
index.asp is the page that will be loaded.
When naming pages please use the correct
suffix for the page type :
| .aspx |
|
.NET script |
| .asp |
|
ASP script |
| .shtml |
|
Server side include |
| .wml |
|
Wireless mobile (WAP) |
| .htm / .html |
|
HTML only pages |
As using script based suffixes ( .aspx / .asp / .shtml )
on pages where they're not required uses
additional server resources and will slightly
delay page delivery times as the pages need
to be parsed by IIS before delivery - .htm
and .html pages are delivered direct to
the visitor without parsing.
