website” on page 175.
The Administer Website dialog box appears.

The Index Files panel appears.
4. Click the Add button.

5. Enter an index filename and, click OK.
The new index filename appears at the bottom of the list of possible index filenames.
6. Using the arrow buttons, arrange the index pages in the order specified by your web server’s
configuration. For example, if your web server is configured to use three index pages—
index.htm, index2.htm, and 404error.htm—and the primary page is index.htm, the designated
order is:
index.htm
index2.htm
404error.htm
This is the order in which the web server retrieves and displays the index pages if one or more
of the pages are unavailable.
