quick .htaccess question..
 

how do i redirect users that come to http://mysite.com to
http://www.mysite.com using htaccess

bumpppppppppp

why would you worry about that, as long as the backlinks are to http://www.mysite.com and not http://mysite.com

because for some weird reason http://mylink doesnt open crap..

how do i set the default page to index.php?

2. If you need to redirect http://mysite.com to
http://www.mysite.com and you've got mod_rewrite enabled on
your server you can put this in your .htaccess file:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*).htm$ $1.html [R=301,L]

or this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Tip: Use your full URL (ie http://www.domain.com) when
obtaining incoming links to your site. Also use your full
URL for the internal linking of your site.


http://www.isitebuild.com/301-redirect.htm

DirectoryIndex filename.html

or if yo want a whole list
DirectoryIndex filename.html index.cgi default.htm foo.html index.html
