    Hi there,

    Got a quick and hopefully simple question to ask...

    Say I have a website at xxx.com and I want to be able to have my website link as xxx.com/1. How would this be possible? I know I could have xxx.com/1.html but I have seen that some people can link to just a number without having to have a filename extension.

    It is basically just so the website link looks a bit more professional then linking to a .html page directly.


    Thanks for any help

    I think adding .html looks more professional. But this can be done with mod_rewrite. How exactly I cant tell you because I suck at it but this is how its done.

    Name the page "index.html".
    Make a folder named "1"
    Put "index.html" in the "1" folder
    Then you can access the site as xxx.com/1

    Any page named "index".whatever will be picked up automatically.
