</div>

first and foremost, sorry, i had no idea where to post this (either client-side or server-side…could be either)…but question is:

how can i get the url not to display the path of the file?  
ie. [www.test.com/directory/login.php](http://www.test.com/directory/login.php)

i want the login.php file to display when someone goes to [www.test.com and they will only see in the URL: [URL=“http://www.test.com”]http://www.test.com](http://www.test.com) and not the rest.

is this possible? thoughts?  
thanks!
