you have written over your index.html page ....you should have only one index.html page, Now the new page has taken over as the index.html page....your new page should have been named differently like index-2.html or something....
you can't get the old one back. that's why it is good make backups or copies

check out web archive org to see if this is what you had, but this one is from 2002

There is also a 'cached' version of the index page
@ Google....which will be more recent than 2002.

This will be found at URL:

marylee,
I just noticed that you have a working index.htm page?? is that the one you want as your homepage url?
when you have two files like that the index.html will load as your default homepage the index.htm only works as the default if there is no index.html....


if that 's the case and you want the index.htm page as your page that answers to your angelfire URL name then what you have to do is first, make a copy(duplicate) of the excisting index.html page so that you don't loose it and then rename your index.htm page(if this is the one you want) rename it to index.html


ok?

marylee- you've gotten some good advice all around. One thing I want to add is that if you're trying to build a second site it belongs in it's own subdirectory... so first create a new subdirectory to contain the new site then move or reupload the new site files into it. It does sounds like part of the problem is 2 slightly differently named index pages. If that's the case, once the new index page (index.html???) is moved out of the root directory into it's own subdirectory, the old one (index.htm??) should start working in the root directory again.

hope that helps and doesn't add confusion :)
