Overall Look of index.php

I am using phpBB 2.0.4.

I would like to edit the index.php file of mine (http://members.lycos.co.uk/kazaaliter2k3/phpBB2/index.php) so I can add frames. Is this the right file?

PHP cannot be edited visually via FrontPage 2002, so is there a PHP WYSIWYG solution out there?

Thanks.

no, your real index file (given your username is kazaaliter2k) is one filetree level higher : http://members.lycos.co.uk/kazaaliter2k3/index.*
* being htm, html, php, depending on the hosting company

and NO, don't use frontpage : it's CRAP

and no, there is no "PHP wysiwyg solution" as PHP IS NOT VISIBLE. PHP generates HTML.

PHP script may be edited using anything able to process plain text, like Wordstar, Notepad, vi or the editor of Turbo-Pascal 3.02 (30KB, full WordStar2000 compliant)

I was wrong about index.php not being the default file. I think that is server dependent. The rest still holds.

you are totally wrong about index.php not being selected as the default index page.
It IS if no index.htm[l] exists...

The best solution is to rename index.php as index.htm[l] and fix this line in httpd.conf :

    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html .phtml

Thanks for the info, but I already said I was wrong so cool your jets. Like I said "server dependent". You are assuming most people have intimate access to their server.
