Discussion Web navigation issue

Greetings,

I've ruled out using blog software and using a simple discussion web
instead. I'm sure that will meet our needs.

The only issue I'm having is when the pages are created, the navigation
scheme is also created. All works well except the link to HOME...I need it
to link to www.mysite.htm and currently the link is to

www.default.asp

For the life of me, I can't see me find where I could change the link. Is
that possible?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Bill
 
The link to the home page in a discussion web page is the home page for the
web or subweb the discussion web is in.
Since the home page for a website is usually index.ext or default.ext (where
..ext can be any of .htm, .html, .asp, .aspx, .php etc.) I am not sure what
is meant by www.default.asp or (even more perplexing) www.mysite.htm.

In addition, the HTML markup for the home page is in the form
<a href="./">Home</a> there may or may not be a target attribute as well.
This does not specify a particular page, but points to the page in the
folder that is closest to the top of the list of default pages in the server
configuration.
If both www.mysite.htm and www.default.asp are in the folder, and both
pages are in the default page list with www.default.asp above the other -
then www.default.asp will "win".

The navigation bar is files at
_borders/disc1_ahdr.htm
and
_borders/disc1_head.htm

- these can be edited.
