That Damn www
Can anyone tell me why it is that some hosts require that you type in the www before your domain and other hosts do not?
http://www.mysite.com as opposed to http://mysite.com Thanks. |

just tell them to send the *. to your default web root. then anything.yourdomain.com will go to yourdomain.com |
