Hi Guys,

I recently uploaded a website with meta tags to the internet. When I search it in Google it comes up near the top but is linked to a file without the .html ending. I do not know how to fix this problem as anyone who searches it will receive an error page when they click the link.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

BlueFlame

You could use a .htaccess.

You mean a META redirect?

The best thing to do is to get Google to have the correct URL in the first place.

Thanks guys. I created the nonexistent sub directories and put an identical copy of index.html into each. That at least gets everyone to the home page.

I also have I more question. The site appears in internet explorer with tables with no border, but in Mozilla Firefox the borders show. Do you know how I can make them invisible in this browser?

Put a class on it:

<html>

<head>

<title>Class</title>

<style>

table.noborder {

border:0px;

}

</style>

<body>

<table class="noborder">

<tr>

<td>Hello</td>

<td>World</td>

</tr>

</table>


</body>

</html>

Of course, the class needs to link to a CSS style like this:

.noborder
{
border: none;
}
