Hi there,

I'd like to add a page to my site and have the address be www.mydomain.com/page NOT www.mydomain.com/page.htm(l)

how exactly do i do this?

Thanks.

Create a folder so for your example create a folder called page. In that folder you put a page (index.html for example).

Then users can visit www.mydomain.com/page and see whats on index.html or whatever file your server has as the default file.

Hope that helps.

that did it...thanks!

my mistake was not naming the page within the folder 'index'

thanks again

It depends which pages are set as default pages. index.html is nearly always set as a one of the detault pages.

Glad you got it working.

Theres lots of people will say yes .. I mean look at the number of scripts and plugins there are to make wordpress etc create url's like that I have found it helps a bit .. but not much ... but I suppose every click counts
