    hi, just wondering how can i get my domain to display the www bit of the url if i enter http://mydomain.com ... i seen alot of site when you type in http://domain.com the page loads and the url changes to http://www.domain.com

    like i always type in http://google.com and when the forum home page loads, it changes to http://www.google.com

    I don't know how it is with your hosting provider, but with mine, there is an option that you can check to auto redirect from mydomain.com to www.mydomain.com. another possible solution, just upload a page into the mydomain.com directory that just redirects to www.mydomain.com

    This is a simple configuration file. If you don't have experience with config files on your web server then speak to your webhost and explain what you want to achieve.
