Hi,
I did this:
ln -s index.html tester.html
and it worked fine. Note that the new page/symbolic-link is 2nd, the
original file name is first in the sequence.
Hadn't thought of using a symbolic link, thanks Urb. And thanks to others
for the .htaccess details. By the way, on my BSD Unix system the man for ln
doesn't show a -n option. ?
