iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 17, 2004 ok, in order for it to go to a pgae, in that directory you have to have a page called "index.htm" without the quotes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 18, 2004 As indicated, you need a default access page to avoid that visitors see your entire directory structure. There are a few names you can use, like; index.htm - index.html - default.htm - default.html - home.htm - home.html etc. This can be your main page or it can be a access page to direct visitors to specific directories. Here's a basic example. <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Index</TITLE><META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></HEAD><BODY><BR><BR><BR><BR> <A HREF="http://forums.xisto.com/ the forum</A><br> <A HREF="http://forums.xisto.com/ the geeklog</A><br> <A HREF="http://forums.xisto.com/ to the portal</A><br> </BODY></HTML><html>To try it, just copy and paste into notepad and save as index.html and upload to your public_html folder. Just edit it to fit your needs. :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
