    I added a new index.html to my root website folder and for some reason when I got to the .com it's not auto grabbing that index page. What did I do wrong and how can I make it auto display?

    Worked with the last index.html and I didn't do anything special

    See here's an example it should come up no problem when I go to http://www.sigsell.com but I have to go to this url to see it, http://www.sigsell.com/index.html

    Yeah try 644, or maybe put back the old index file and just edit the source code with the new one

    Well I don't know how to chmod an index.html shouldn't it automatically show up?

    EDIT: I also just noticed my last index file was a .php anyone know the code to redirect to index.html from the old index.php?

    But I also notice I have an index.html at your source for info and it shows up no problem hmm....

    Do you have two index files? If you have a php and a html index file in the root directory that is probably your problem.
