Hello. anyone got an idea about how to get rid of the .htm extension?

I've just booked and paid for ad space with the url www.pritchard-heating.co.uk/keepboiler in the advert but people can only see it if they type in .../keepboiler.htm.

It's a bugger as it's gone to print. Can anyone give me some advice?

Upload an empty index.html page with a meta refresh tag to automatically forward the user to the .htm page

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://www.pritchard-heating.co.uk/keepboiler/keepboiler.htm">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

That looks like a good idea but my index page is being used. Any other ideas?

put the page in a folder called keepboiler and rename it to index.htm

Thank you both very much. Once I got the idea of what you wanted me to do it worked out just fine. Many many thanks. Looks like an interesting thing you've got there Chirs with the people counting system.
