Replace Location

Not quite sure I understand fully. Are you trying to hide the subdirectory from view? If so, wouldn't a subdomain work just fine?

If you want to do the redirect through a php script the code would look something like this.

header("Location: http://something.somesite.com");

If you have any <HTML> or <HEAD> tags before that section of the script, then you need to put the following line at the top of your script:

<? ob_start(); ?>

... and this line at the bottom:

<? ob_end_flush(); ?>

It sounds like a redirect in the index.html of the subdirectory pointing to the subdomain. The redirect should send the request to the index.htm (or wherever else).

Otherwise we have a loop right?

So its specifically those links you are trying to alter? I don't think that could be done without actually hijacking the persons browser (not quite ethical), or convincing surpass to change all their internal links... Once the person leaves your site, you lose control over them.

index.html will point to index.htm or another file.

It just LOOKs like it is going somewhere else. It is actually in the same directory.

My guess.
