Default Web Page and Logon Screen

Default Web Page and Logon Screen - Index.shtml

The FacilitatePro Web server is installed with a default Web page called Index.shtml that is a simple logon screen and provides user ID and password access to the electronic conference center. This Web page is designed to automatically pick up the Server URL of the FacilitatePro Web server and requires no editing for most installations.

The Index.shtml file is located in the Web directory within the FacilitatePro directory. The file can be edited to include different logos, titles and instructions. Load new images into the Images directory within the Web directory.

NOTE: Before editing the Index.shtml file, make a back-up copy in the Web directory and call it Indexcopy.shtml. If you run into trouble with your edited version you will be able access to the electronic conference center by linking to http://yourserveraddress/indexcopy.shtml where "yourserveraddress" is the domain name or IP address of your web server.
