Why do I get a page "Index of / "

Why do I get a page named "Index of / " with a list of all my links, when I type my URL in a Browser?  I named my home page index.html, but the browsers insist that I add /index.html to the end of the URL.  I have another website where I don't have this problem.  Please make suggestions.
Thanks,
Tony

Contact your web host and ask them what your domain name home page should be named.
Most hosts designate the domain name home page as index.(htm, html, php, asp...)
Although a few use home.(htm, html, php, asp...).
It's also possible that you have more than one index or home page in your root.  If so, delete the duplicate.

This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design. 2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin. 3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document. 4) If you prefer your nav on the right instead of the left, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all right instead of all left) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source. */ .sidebar1 { float: left; width: 20%; background: #93A5C4; padding-bottom: 10px; } .content { padding: 10px 0; width: 80%; float: left; } /* ~~ This grouped selector gives the lists in the .content area space ~~ */ .content ul, .content ol { padding: 0 15px 15px 40px; /* this padding mirrors the right padding in the headings and paragraph rule above.

These may be adjusted as you wish. */ } /* ~~ The navigation list styles (can be removed if you choose to use a premade flyout menu like Spry) ~~ */ ul.nav { list-style: none; /* this removes the list marker */ border-top: 1px solid #666; /* this creates the top border for the links - all others are placed using a bottom border on the LI */ margin-bottom: 15px; /* this creates the space between the navigation on the content below */ } ul.nav li { border-bottom: 1px solid #666; /* this creates the button separation */ } ul.nav a, ul.nav a:visited { /* grouping these selectors makes sure that your links retain their button look even after being visited */ padding: 5px 5px 5px 15px; display: block; /* this gives the link block properties causing it to fill the whole LI containing it.

    your home page to get into your Web site should be index.html (for Mac) or index.htm  (on PC)
    You can name it something other than index, but will be harder to find.  when you create the subjects and link to them, they can can be named anything with the html extension  Or if your using PHP end in .php. There is a Microsoft type asp or aspx but your hosting service has to set up using windows server system.
    My hosting service use a Linux server normally but can convert Windows for a Fee.  UNIX Linux has no concept of asp or aspx.

  • Why do I get a page break every time I hit return?

    I can't find a solution anywhere.

    OSX 10.8.3 I am new to Mac and my Macbook Pro 13" and Pages are new (a few months) I added Handbrake and Final Cut Pro along with Keynote but the system still worked fine before and after these installs. I install updates when I get the notification and have done no other changes to this machine.

  • Why am I getting this - pages "No such file or directory"?

    After building a Pages doc with images and type, the file got pretty big - about 445mb.  Nearing completion, I started getting the error "The document “document name” could not be saved. No such file or directory."  Have I exceeded the file size limit?  Are there permissions issues going on?  I tried saving it to both the desktop and locally in other places, to our XServe and to our promise raid.  No luck.  I tried changing the file name in a "Save As" with no luck.  Got the same message.  I can edit, add and paste items from the doc as well as export it to a PDF or a .doc, but can't save it as a pages document.  What might be the probelm?
    Thanks.

  • Why do I get a black screen when i click on a PDF in a web page?

    why do I get a black screen when i click on a PDF in a web page? Firefox works as is should.

    Hi,
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, then relaunch Safari. Try a PDF file.
    If it's not Extensions, open a Finder window. Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder then the Internet Plug-Ins folder. If you see any files such as this:
    AdobePDF Browser or Viewer Plug-in
    Move it to the Trash, relaunch Safari.

  • Why do I get an error message in safari 5.1 telling me to restart in 32 bit mode in order to "view the movie" when I first start safari on opening page?

    why do I get an error message when I start safari 5.1 telling me I need to open browser in 32 bit mode in order to "view movie" ? This occurs when I start safari on the opening page (the page with all the boxes for most viewed web sites). This had never occurred with safari up until the latest updates to safari & OSX [Version 5.1 (6534.50)] and OSX 10.6.8.
    also, I'm not trying to view a movie - this occurs for the page previews that load when safari opens.
    thanks.

  • Why does one of site pages show up as index in my reports?

    Why does one of site pages show up as index in my reports?

    Hi morganagordon,
    Kindly share the URL of your site.
    Also, check the Page Properties of the pages in your Muse file for the page name, page title and file name of the pages.
    To check the same, you will need to open the file with Muse, go to the Plan view, right on each page thumbnail, select "Page Properties" and select the Options tab.

  • Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages?

    Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages? They do not load or play correctly.  They are both configured to play automatically with a .125 second delay and both have a white rectangle "poster" over for a hidden effect.

    Thanks for the idea, Scott! I initially tried your idea, but my OAM files were still not loading correctly.  I tried other combinations of OAM files, and it seems to work fine.
    Back to my original OAM files: I made sure that my elements in my Edge Animate project had different names. I originally copied parts of some elements from one to another, and I think it was confusing to DPS to read it.

    Did you reset Firefox recently?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
    If that is the case then you may have lost intermediate certificates that were stored in the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Check out why the site is untrusted (see the Technical details) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    Some firewalls monitor secure (https) connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
