Default ok...one more question


Thanks for your previous responses!

when I go to my website, www.godisstillspeakingaustin.org
my page does not come up.
if I got to www.godisstillspeakingaustin.org/home.html it does.
How do I make my page come up with just www.godisstillspeakingaustin.org

Thanks,
jojo

Or set the directive
"DirectoryIndex home.html"
in your httpd.conf.

Unless you have your own server, you usually don't have access
to httpd.conf

However, many directives can be put in .htaccess, which you probably
*do* have access to.

That's true - although I have no idea what to add to the
..htaccess file to make home.html the default in a directory.

Just add 1 line and put the .htaccess file in the server root directory:

DirectoryIndex home.html index.html

The above means it will look for home.html first. If not there, look for
index.html.

Note that this applies to the directory where the .htaccess file is
located and all its subdirectories.
