mb Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hi - I have created a temporary, private page that I have hosted on my work website. When I give the URL it has to have a .htm suffix to work - is there a way around this without making it the index page ? Thansk Martyin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s4dreamer Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Are you saying that your work web server requires pages to have a .htm suffix and your page doesn't or that you simply want to have a page without a suffix ? In theory, there's nothing to stop the web server giving you a file which has no suffix, but different web servers have different ways of dealing with file contents (based on name), so your mileage may vary.

mb Posted July 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Aha - it must be that my web-server will not serve a page without a suffix. I wanted to do this as I think the URL is less cumbersome but only if it was a simple fix. Thanks Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison1379134007 Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 you could always make a directory by the name you want in the url and then rename your htm file to index.htm and stick it in it. So then your url would be http://somehost.com/thenewdir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
