That should work without modification to your .htaccess file.

The only thing that might be an issue would be indexing. So if you see a list of files in the directory instead of the page you expect then try adding the following lines to your .htaccess file:

#this will turn off indexing (the list of files
Options -Indexes
#this will make a /directory/ link point to index.html
DirectoryIndex index.html

Thanks for the suggestion! but unfortunately no luck... when I click the link it still gives be a "not found" error page. I double checked the link and if I placed the file in the right place but no problems there... just a question though.

is there a difference between
"IndexIgnore *" and "Options -Indexes" in the .htaccess file?
