I tried a few things, but I could never get the height to scale properly as the browser was made narrower or wider.  So I'm sticking with the two div sections for now.  Thanks for the help!

Thank you, Steven.  www.LJ3.com is getting better.  I have a couple of questions:

1.  How do I keep the right edge of the rotating images in line with the right edge of the separator and the nav items?

2.  The height of the JuiceBox area is too high.  How can I make the height be only what it needs to be?

3.  On a Windows Phone, the rotating images are vertically centered in a rather tall column.  The images should be at the top.  I think if I fix item 2, this will likely go away.

Thanks again for your advice.

Right after I finished the above post, I did get the temporary home page.  :(

I'll put the work-around php file back.

Thanks very much, Jack.  I made the change to the php file about 3 hours ago, and I'm not getting the temp page anymore.  If the site is idle for a while, it does take time for GoDaddy to reload it on their servers.  That typically takes 5 - 10 seconds.

You noted that including index.php made the correct home page show up.  I don't think that was the difference.  Index.php is getting processed regardless of whether you include it in the URL or not because it's the default page.  You probably went to the URL that included index.php on your second try.  When you got the temp page, GoDaddy's server had finally loaded the LJ3.com website into IIS.  If you had simply refreshed your browser, you would have gotten the correct web site even if you didn't include index.php in the URL.

You probably already know this, but IIS is notorious for dumping idle processes and reloading them as needed.  Lots of people complain about this, but MSFT hasn't really done anything to improve it.  GoDaddy makes it a little worse with their shared hosting, but it would still be a problem even with a dedicated server.

FYI - I'm a recently retired software engineer.  Therefore it's also time to retire the server I've had running in the garage for the past 15 years.  GoDaddy's hosting fee ($3/month) is cheaper than the electricity needed for the server, so I'm moving my stuff.  Later today I'll be adding a web service to LJ3.com.  That service will get hit about 10 times/minute, so it will probably keep LJ3.com alive all the time.  Once I get that running, I'll go back to the original index.php file and see if the possible time-out issue goes away.

One more thing - I'm not a php guy, but I do have quite a bit of HTML and JavaScript experience (although I was primarily a C++/C# programmer).  If there's anything you would like me to try in pursuit of this issue, feel free to ask.
