How to make a url display correctly?

    Hi,

    I need to change a url to display a html page as how it is. Right now, typing on the url will direct me to the /public_html directory contents and not the particular page I want. So visitors see the contents and that includes the particular html page in the list... They will see index, page A, page B, etc...displayed in list form....but not the particular page itself that I want displayed.

    Does anyone know?

    Thanks

    :eek: Maybe it looks confusing...

    Actually I just mean when anyone type the url they will see the contents of the root folder with all the files there...so will need to click on a file to display the particular page...(not suppose to be like this).... :eek:

    How do I make the url to display just one of the html pages that I just uploaded when the user type the url?

    Thanks in advance. :)
