You can only have 1 home page and navigation view / them per web or subweb
- if you have a folder in a web users can enter the URL of the folder and get a default page (not a home page), if that folder also
includes a file w/ the same name as the home page (in your case index.htm)
If you want separate navigation, themes, and home pages (using FP nav bars) for the youth part of the web, it must be a subweb
- check w/ your host if they support subwebs - many don't
To convert the youth folder to a subweb right click and select convert to web
Double click the subweb to open it in FP and create a new nav view (and any shared border / theme)
In nav view create an external link to your root web
You can publish the subweb using File Publish web
http://www.htbc.info/youth/
Then in your root web create an external link in your nav view to the home page of the subweb youth
(you can also publish the root and subweb together using File Publsih Web
http://www.htbc.info/ and selecting the Include subweb
option)

| OK, I did that but now the page I renamed 'index.htm' is
