I think you can get rid of the home tab in the customer portal. I have developed a vf page for the customer portal users. and that does not ahve a home tab.

If this is what you are asking for:

here is the snippet of my vf page

 

<apex:page id="styleClassProblem"   showHeader="false" sidebar="false" Controller="customerdetailscontroller" action="{!met}">
    <apex:form >
    <style>
     body
    {
      font: 75% tahoma, sans-serif;
      color: white;
      background-image: url('{!$Resource.amfbg}');
    }

And this got the home tab removed from the page.

Sites doesn't have a home tab, the customer portal does.  But, I'm pretty sure you can't get rid of it there either.  We ended up ditching the portal and going fully custom, because the work it takes to override all the stuff you don't want in the portal typically outweighs the time spent building your own, unless you aren't that picky.

Hi.. Ya, thanks. I was thinking of some other ways to make home tab hidden without even realising that we can use showHeader="false". Thanks a lot..
