I hope this topic is in the correct forum 😉

I have a web server and I would like to place the contents of a website in a directory (for example’s sake called, “www”), but want the contents of this directory to be the root of the site…

To clarify:  
When a user goes to [http://www.stoneykun.com](http://www.stoneykun.com), they are directed to /www/index.html, but the URL in the address bar appears as [http://www.stoneykun.com/index.html](http://www.stoneykun.com/index.html).

Is this doable with htacess?

Thankyou kindly!
