webpage redirection

[james8547]

Well I got the invision forum properly installed. However, it's installed on www.jamescpa.biz/forum.index.php. I'd like it to be when some1 tries to access www.jamescpa.biz, they get automatically redirected to the forum index.

I tried using .htaccess DirectoryIndex. It works somewhat. When I type www.jamescpa.biz, it gets redirected to the forum index. But the images are not loading properly since the page is looking for the images under the wrong directory. In other words, the pictures are under the jamescpa.biz/forum/style_images folder. But the page is looking in the jamescpa.biz/style_images folder which doesn't exist. The forum works properly when the user clicks on the links.

The links may not work properly since the name propagation lasts for 72 hrs before it takes full effect on the whole internet.

Any ideas how to redirect the page properly? TIA

Create an index.html page with this code in the HEAD section.

PHP Code:

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=http://www.jamescpa.biz/forums/">

I did search the the forums and I found a similar suggestion posted early on. I tried it a few hours before I started the new thread. It didn't work. But now after I ran spybot, adaware and cleared the internet temp files, it works! Now it makes me wonder if my system had any unwanted files...
