Thread: how to get rid of the file name in the website address?

hi

i have a question:
how to get rid of the file name in the website address?
i have: www.someaddress.com/somefile.htm
but i'd like only www.someaddress.com to be seen, so u acctually don't see the file names at all.
how to do it?

thanks in advance

Hi,

I am a dummy but I would add one of these codes to your .htaccess file see if they help you.

Best I could find.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_fileNAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_fileNAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*[^./]+)$ /$1.html [L]

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[^./]+)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_fileNAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_fileNAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*) /$1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^.]+)\.html\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)\.html$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

You could put the entire site in a single frame, but that might hurt your SEO.

What Sami said is pretty easy and painless. Your other option is creating a directory such as /images/, then create the content file as index.html and bam.
