1. If you don't want to run a server on your system, you can preview SHTML
files with this handy little tool - SHTML viewer available at
http://www.toolsforselling.com/v1/2/shtmview.htm . I have IIS running on
my system, but sometimes I don't want to set up a virtual site, so I use
this. Very easy to use, and free.
2. You should name your index page index.shtml . The server will know to
parse it that way.
