    The only thing you can do is set a redirect up on index.html (index is the default page that is loaded when you type in the address. You don't have the access to the change that).

    If you want a simple and more seamless redirect, create a page called

    index.php on your computer (no in bv, just use notepad or wordpad).
    Enter this code
    <? header("Location: http://clunycafeeparma.com/home.html"); ?>

    That will be an almost instant redirect to your home.html page. Then just upload it to the server.

    The simplest solution is just make index.html your main page

    Do you use a Password Protected Directory? Need a way to allow users to make their own account, try my .htaccess Login Script

        Sorry, but i don't understand . If you actually want the page "home.html" to be your homepage, why don't you simply save it as "index" and publish it so ?

        If you setup a redirect in your index, it wil not be available any more (because of the redirect) so what would be the use of this "index" page ?

            Simply open your "home" page in BV, then go in File, Save as, and save it as "index"

              Actually I was wrong. I didn't realize there was a .htaccess command to change the apache settings for the default page.

              This might be hard to do if you have never used a ftp before, but basically if you were to go to your website, and find in your public_html directory a file called .htaccess.

              Download that file to your computer, open it in notepad and add this line at the bottom

              Code:
              DirectoryIndex home.html

              And then save, and upload it back to the server (overwriting the old file).


              This will set home.html as the default page that loads when you type in your domain name

                I believe that bassamtk simply ignored the fact that he needed to publish his page as index. If i am correct, as also Watdaflip has suggested, it is enough saving and publishing the "home" page as "index".
