Hi,

I'm showing how ignorant I am but I have to ask.

The best example I have is CNN. They have addresses such as
www.cnn.com/politics (http://www.cnn.com/politics)[nbsp][nbsp] cnn.com/weather

FQ have examples such as http://www.futurequest.net/Order/

How can I do this? Usually I have www.mydomain/page4.htm (http://www.mydomain/page4.htm)
Can anyone tell me how to have my page addresses without the htm or html ?

Cheers

Marty

Make a directory titled whatever you wish, and put a link from the pages you wish to direct there.[nbsp][nbsp]Very similar to how you would build a directory structure on your local computer.[nbsp][nbsp]So in the CNN example, they have a directory titled /politics, and the WHOLE URL is something like http://www.cnn.com/politics/index.html so that if someone types in www.cnn.com/politics (http://www.cnn.com/politics) it takes them to the index page in that directory.

Hope this helps!
