But I don't get the index.html file I put in Documents/Sites/www.hhhstrawhhhberry.com. Even if I type http://www.hhhstrawhhhberry.com/index.html instead. What should I do to fix this ? > [please don't top post.] Not sure what "top posting" is, but I noticed I had inadvertently included copies of the whole preceding discussion in my posts.
