The problem with this solution is that whenever people bookmark your website, they'll get something like http://mydomain.com/mywebsite instead of just http://mydomain.com
Talking about bookmarks, philstar.com does the similar thing by redirecting visitors to the present day's index page. For example today, I get http://www.philstar.com/philstar/index20041119.htm So when people decide to bookmark their page, they will bookmark that particular day's page which is really bad. The next day the visitor clicks the bookmark, it goes to that day's page and not to the present day's page. For a regular non-technical user, they might think the page wasn't updated. I've emailed philstar about it and never got a reply. On Thu, 18 Nov 2004 09:06:49 +0800, Mhac Janapin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I had a similar problem and I made a rather *crude* solution.
