Hiya all,

I'm trying to do a cpanel redirect of my main domain to a page in the domain, but no matter what I do I can't get it to not have the / in the redirect check so it's looking for that / in order to tell what to do. There's no option anywhere to not have that forward slash as part of the path so when I try to redirect the main domain name such as:

domain.com
to
domain.com/page.html

it goes off to some off the wall UK site or to a blank white page. Anyone know how I can redirect the main domain name itself to a page on the same domain in the main directory please? Is this possible?

The reason I ask is that I have a theme I'm playing around with that I created in Artisteer2 and instead of it creating an index.html page it created a page.html page and it won't let me change it. When I try to change it then the menu won't work lol. I realize I need to just hunt down all the paths etc. but while I do that I was hoping to redirect this one to at least upload and work on the site while I'm doing all this and it's just not letting me redirect it. I added an index.html page to the site, but that didn't fix it either since the redirect is specifically looking for that page and not the domain.com without a page after it so I'm kind of lost here I guess lol. Any clues would be appreciated :)
