Ok, how do you make index.html the default page? when there is XOOPS on the site?
Basically do you put XOOPS in a folder on your domain..and keep html...the index.html in front?

This is depending on the webserver configuration of your client. Whatever he uses e.g. Apache, MS II IS ... that should have a configuration option which tells him to look for which files in which order.
Here are two possible configurations (of many other ones possible):search order 1: index.htm index.html index.php
search order 2: index.php index.htm index.html
Now lets say:- your customers original homepage has an index.htm
- XOOPS uses index.php
The customer enters "www.blahblah.com" In case of
search order 1: it would deliver the index.htm of the original site.
In case of
search order 2: it would deliver the index.php of the new XOOPS site.
Possible backdraw:Just thought of ... every button like "home" or something which uses only the url like "www.blahblah.com" would bring you back to the index file which is first in search order. This could be a problem.
So on second thought ... i would favor to keep it clean, use a subdomain and link from the original page to the subdomain so the users wont have to worry about this and just move it later.
Although everything depends on the requirements of your customer like i wrote before and have not a clue about.
