wow, two worthy responses in less than 2 hours. that's why i love TFP.
i wanted to keep the start page off the root for simplicity in the actual file structure and a strange desire to keep whatever i can off the root directory borrowed from areas in computing where i am much more knowledgeable.. the site just a personal one done for family reasons... so i'm sure they'll forgive me for a redirect. however, when commercial sites do this it does annoy me a bit.
i really should just knuckle down and get a scripting language like php under my belt.
thanks again for the two answers. please add more to the discussion if anything comes to mind.
