Can't change Start Page in Browser based AIRHelp (TCS3)

I have changed the Start Page for an AIRHelp project (from index.html), but despite the new html page being launched (as shown in the browser), the Help still displays the original default page. Any ideas anyone?

    The Start page is what fires up the tri-pane window. By default it is called index.htm you can change that in the layout.

    The default topic is the topic that appears in the tri-pane window. You can change the topic that appears as the default you should not have a topic called index.htm as it will cause confusion.

    Hi Peter, this is what I have done. (I don't have a topic called index.htm). I changed the start topic to introduction.htm, but the topic associated with index.htm is still displayed as the default. This is a linked FrameMaker Book project, if this makes any difference?
