Default homepage (index.html)

[cstjean]

Is there any way to serve index.html when / is opened? I care because a relative URL to salad.html from /potato/index.html leads to /potato/salad.html. If I serve my page at /potato/, it'll point to /salad.html instead.

I think there are two separate issues here:

• How to go from / to /index.html automatically
• Why a link to salad.html (when at /potato/index.html) leads to /potato/salad.html

For the former, you should just need to provide a page handler for /index.html; clients will usually try that by default if / doesn't go anywhere.

For the latter, this is expected behavior to my understanding. That is a relative link, so it'll stay within the same location in the tree. If you want to go to /salad.html when further down the tree, you need to specify that exactly.
