Don't have time to test this out, but did you try serving your root url with django.views.static.serve ? That should do what you're looking for; you might have to type in the full path (http://localhost:8000/index.html) as I'm not sure if the dev server will automatically use index files like apache does. Try using something like the following in your urls.py: (r'^$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': '/path/to/static'}), HTH, Colin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
