Hey guys,

Just a quick one...How do you make a page for an html site that you can visit with having to type .html or .htm on the end. For example if I wanted to tell people to visit...

www.mysite.com/freegift

I want them to be able to type that in and visit the page directly without having to type...

www.mysite.com/freegift.html

Any ideas?

    Hello,
    this is the way it is done.
    You make a new folder with the name:
    freegift and then you put the index file in there.
    Real simple.

    Something new soon.

    Create a folder on your site called "Freegift", and then inside it put your a file called index.html(essentially the freegift.html stuff). Send them to Yourdomain.com/freegift.

    That's it.

      You can do like Keith and Lou said.

      If you have 10 html files in folder, the one that will open up in the browser is the index.html.

      So if you have this folder:

      folder/test1.html
      folder/banana.htm
      folder/apple.gif
      folder/ninjatactics.pdf
      folder/index.html
      folder/kingston.jpeg

      ..and you send people to www.yourdomain.com/folder/

      the site that will open up in their browser is
      www.yourdomain.com/folder/index.html

    Nothing. I mean the difference is nothing.

    Normal editors save files with html extension.
    M$ editors save them with htm extension.

    Web browsers and servers will treat a file with an HTM extension exactly as it would a file with an HTML extension.
