I am creating a Personal online CV, using my iDisk as Websapce. The only problem whith this is that Apple has created & locked a 'index.html' page that I would like to replace so the link to my CV is 'http://homepage.mac.com/tonysmac/' instead of 'http://homepage.mac.com/tonysmac/whatever.html'. So is it possible to get rid of this page?
I also thought that Apple had activated WebDAV on the iDisk, but I can't log on to it using the WebDAV feature in GoLive, or find any info about this feature on Apple's Site?

I can't remember how I did it, but I managed to replace the standard index.html with my own version via WebDAV. I used Goliath to do this since I'm sitting behind a corporate firewall.
Perhaps you need to deactivate first the site via the iTools website?

According to Apple, and this worked for me, just drag and drop your new index.html doc into the Sites folder on your iDisk. Mine overwrote with no prob-- just had to verify an "are you sure?" dialog.
