URL without .htm

[Guest]

I've recently printed some literature that points people to a particular web address. The URL I've pointed people to is in the following format - www.website.com/mazd

As you can see, I left off the .htm and thus, the page does not show up when it is typed as indicated above (it does show up if I add the .htm

Is there anyway or an option within FrontPage 2003 that allows a page to show up even if the extension isn't typed

Help

Thanks

To use the link as you have it, the "mazda" would have to be a folder and the page "mazda.htm would
have to be rename to the same name as your home page in the "mazda" folder.

That is, "home", "index" or whatever your host considers
the home page.

You would have to create a folder entitled "mazda
change the name of "mazda.htm" to "index.htm" and put it in your mazda folde
then your url to: "www.website.com/mazda" would point to your mazda page

that is, an 'index.htm' file inside the 'mazda' folder would not require the user
to type www.web.com/mazda/index.htm but leave it as you had it :
www.web.com/mazda/
(with or without the final '/' on the end).
