    Default Catalog can't be reached on WWW at yoursite.com, but only at yoursite.com/catalog

    My catalog homepage can only be reached by the world by typing URL www.yoursite.com/catalog but not when trying to go to www.yoursite.com. Not much use to that for prospective customers. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

    Thanks,
    Newbie Tis_me

    you could do a rewrite or you can move the /catalog directory to the root directory. If you do the second you will need to change includes/configure.php appropriately.

    Many people have an informational site or opening demo/flash/intro which then sends them into your actual site or has a link to there "shopping cart" site.

    I use a php redirect... unlike a html one it's instantaneous. google will have a sample file for you i don't have mine handy.
