How do I do a 301 redirect?
I used to have my homepage as index.html, not it's index.php. Since I have many internal and external links pointing to the html version, I need to do a 301 redirect. It's not working. Here is what I have in my .htaccess file:
redirect 301 mysite.com/index.html http://www.mysite.com/index.php
so they way I understand it, everytime it tried to find the index.html it should direct to the new php page.
Any reason why this isn't working?
1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoHow do I get HTML text to NOT be all CAPS with a H1 tag?
I need the text on my page to be mixed case AND be an H1 heading. Whenever I apply the H1 tag, the text is all CAPS when I upload it. I've used Dreamweaver and Nvu and the problem is the same.
So for instance if I have "This Is My Mixed Case Title" with a H1 tag, it actually displays as "THIS IS MY MIXED CASE TITLE"
6 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoWhat is it called if I want to have a stock automatically be set to sell?
I want to buy a stock but limit my downside and have it sell if it hits a certain point. I know this is called something, I thought it was a put order, but I don't think so now that I read what a put is it seems to me that is what I would call selling short.
Do I need a special account to do this normally? I'm having trouble with my online broker arranging this, they want to do a credit check and whatnot which I understand if I'm buying on margin, but not for this.
3 AnswersInvesting1 decade agoWhat IRS form do I fill out to declare my corp a 'S' corp?
I’m trying to file the paperwork in WI to setup a new corp. It seems pretty straightforward to get the corp registered in WI, but the website says that I just setup a corp through the state and that I declare it a C or S corp through the IRS. The IRS website is quite a bit less user friendly and I can’t figure it out What form do I fill out to make it an S corp once I get it registered with the state?
From the WI website:
""S" and "C" refer to subsections of the Internal Revenue Code signifying the federal tax status of a corporation. For either type, articles of incorporation are filed in the usual manner (see Forms below), but you need to contact the IRS to have your corporation specifically recognized as a sub "C" or sub "S" corporation. For additional information, please read the IRS's Small Business/Self-Employed/Other Business Frequently Asked Questions"

3 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoHow can I add users to a protected directory on my site (members only) when they subscribe to me mailing list?
I want to have a members only area of my site and only give access to people that subscribe to my newsletter. I can do this easily enough by protecting the directory and adding users manually to it, bit I'd like to find a way to add the user and assign the password automatically and generate at email back to the users email telling them their login info. Is there a 3rd party tool that can accomplish this? So I want a user to fill out a web form, have that automatically add them to my mailing list as well as give them access to my members only directory, and generate an email back to them with the login credentials. Of course, I would want them removed if they opt out.
My newsletter management software can't do this, and I haven't found one that can.

10 AnswersWinter Sports1 decade agoShould I pre pay for my child's college or save it for retirments, etc?
My state offers the ability to buy college semesters now at current rates to be used when my child turns college age. She's only 2 now, so I imagine that being able to buy a college education for 5K a semester now will be a lot less than in 16 years. I'm not sure how much, if any, I should be putting into this type of plan or if I should put everything into retirements for myself or just save for her college in a typical 529.
