Make www.mydomain.co.uk the home page

**Vick2004uk** · 12-19-2004, 12:08 PM

Please can someone help me. I would like to make www.mydomain.co.uk my homepage, but when that is entered into the address bar it will take you directly to the catalog page. I am totally new in relation to all of this and am looking for easy instructions to follow to do this ie if I need to edit .htaccess or configure.php please tell me what i actually have to enter into the file.
I have seen other peoples websites who have used oscommerce and so know it is possible but i am beginning to get very stressed after trying to do it for the past few days. Any help that can be provided as soon as possible will be greatfully received.

You could move all the files to the root directory and change the paths in the 2 config.php files accordingly.

Or, simply refer the visitor to the /catalog folder by putting this in the index.html file in the root directory:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="0.4;URL=http://www.mydomain.co.uk/catalog">
<TITLE>Welcome To My Site</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

</BODY>
</HTML>

So what you want to do is go to /index.html but it's taking you to catalog/ ? It actually takes more effort to do it the way you're describing. Try re-explaining it or giving us a URL to look at. This does not completely make sense to me.
