I have never done any HTML except for trivial static pages, so I hope I
can ask this question in a way that can be understood.
When a person surfs to somepage.com, the remote server automatically
starts the script index.html. But if the site is composed of entirely
CGI scripts, then you need to actually run the script at
somepage.com/cgi-bin/somescript.pl (or whatever). Just surfing to
somepage.com won't find it.
The question. How do you redirect or repoint from the default
static index.html to the starting cgi-script without the surfer having
to click on a link (or even knowing that an index.html exists?
Thanks anyone. If the above still doesn't make sense, I will try again.
