Rename index.php to something else

Hi,
My site has one of those cheesy intro pages and it is named index.php so it shows up as the site index, however CMSMS also uses index.php, I was able to rename index.php to page.php without a problem but on my menu in CMSMS all of the pages still like to index.php instead of page.php and I can't figure out how to change it.

There must be a way?

How?

THANKS!

Why not incorporate the intro, or redo it as index.html?

actually i forgot to mention that, I tried naming the intro as index.html, but our server is set to have php override html, so the index.php shows instead of index.html, I don't have any access to the server so I can't change ANY settings on the server...

Well then, incorporate the intro as your first page. I've done it on lots of sites.

Just create a new template laid out like your original rendered index.php and add a stylesheet with any styling you used. add the into stuff to the page, don't show it in the menu and make it the default first page of your site.

Is it a flash intro?

I had tried that before but the CSS was embedded, i made it css file and it works now!
