htaccess options

Feb 23.2008

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to force the default page to show when a domain is loaded.

That is, forcing it to show. If some goes to [url]www.domain.com/[/url] they would automatically get redirected to [url]www.domain.com/index.php[/url].

I’ve tried the following htaccess rule:

Redirect /localhost:8080/modxmg /localhost:8080/modxmg/index.php

but it does not work. I am not knowledgeable of htaccess beyond what I’ve seen as examples.

@ray326Feb 23.2008 — The easiest way to do that is to make index.php one of the available index pages.

@TyeMauthorFeb 23.2008 — I know about using Directory Index.

I am not trying to load the page automatically. I am trying to have the page show in the url.

The problem is I have a PHP script which gets the currentpage and passes it on to another page. If that page is www.domain.com/<empty>, it passes the empty which is useless to me, where as what I need is for it pass <index.php>. By default that does not show.

Success!
