    Help! Godaddy Users!

    Okay, well, i've uploaded my site to godaddy.. It works.. Write in sunglowexotics.com to your address bar, and my site will come up... The only problem is, is that the address in the address bar becomes weird... It goes from sunglowexotics.com when you write it in to http://sunglowexotics.com/www.SunGlo....com/Home.html when you get to the site... How do i fix this... many other sites will just say what the domain is... For example, you write in sunglowexotics.com, it will change to www.sunglowexotics.com.... basically staying the same...

    Re: Help! Godaddy Users!

    Hi,

    If I go to http://www.sunglowexotics.com I get redirected to http://www.sunglowexotics.com/SGE/Home.html which gives me a 404 error.

    If I then change the "Home.html" to "index.html" it redirects to http://www.sunglowexotics.com/SGE/SGE/Home.html which works fine.

    So you may want to do a little shuffling or re-linking so that people can see the site. Once you get it open all the links seem to work fine though.

    Did you name your home page "index"? Also, make sure you didn't put that page in a seperate folder. You should just upload the page directly to your files, not in any folder.

    Re: Help! Godaddy Users!

    For the time being until you get it figured out, open up notepad and paste the following into it:

    <html>
    <head>
    <script language="javascript">
    location.replace("http://www.sunglowexotics.com/SGE/Home.html");
    </script>
    </head>
    </html>

    Save the file as index.html and upload it into your web directory, likely public_html. You will see an SGE folder when you are in the right place, not in the SGE folder, but the SGE will be visible in the right directory. This will redirect to your page.

    If you can't fix it PM me with your info and I will see if I can fix it for you tonight so you don't have to use a redirect.
