Enabling Instant Web Publishing
If you want to publish your database using FileMaker Pro Instant Web
Publishing, be sure Enable Instant Web Publishing is selected. If you are
exclusively using FileMaker Pro Custom Web Publishing, you can
deselect this option.
Specifying a home page for your database
If you are familiar with HTML editing, you can create a personalized
Web page that can be used instead of the FileMaker Pro Web
Companion Built-in home page.
If you want to use a home page other than the one that’s built into
FileMaker Pro Web Companion, create the home page and move it into
the top level of the Web folder in the FileMaker Pro 4.0 folder. Then
choose the home page file from the Home Page drop-down list.
