[DLG_1]

i can imagine that this question has been asked a billion times, but here goes...


how do I make index.php3 my default page instead of index.html?



please give me an easy walk-through of the procedure.


Thanks a million!

Have you tried asking your host?

[DLG_1]

they have some info on it, but i want to confirm.

DirectoryIndex index.php3 index.php index.htm index.html

would do it for .php3, .php, .htm, .html

[igsites]

Put this in the .htaccess file

Redirect /index.html http://www.yoursite.com/index.php3

No dont do that. That just takes longer redirecting the user. Karl's way is perfect though...
