    I just discovered that if you try to go to my site by typing www.writeside.net, you get the Apache success page instead of the site index.

    It works fine if you don't type the www!

    I don't know how long this has been happening. A friend pointed it out to me. I never noticed as I don't usually type the www for web addresses.

    Could anyone help me out here? Much appreciated! shamed

    EDIT: I also notice that if you try to access the blog via www.writeside.net/blog/ it gives a 404 error! Works if you use just writeside.net/blog/ ! shocked

    try this in your .htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.writeside\.net$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://writeside.net/$1 [R=301,L]

    It appears that it was a control panel bug that made the www drop off my web server config! So say my web hosts, who have fixed the problem!

    Oh, and thank you, Bob. bakie

    Just curious... how do you fix it? My hosts fixed it for me, but it'd be good to know.

    It's your host that needs to fix it ;) It's deep within the server.
