help needed as im totaly stuck

[divebuddha]

well yet again for the 2nd time today i extend my voice out for help on the web template front

after installing a guestbook application earlier and subsequently having to delete the database due to it

messing up my home page settings, then losing the site totaly through faults of my own, then having to

restore the whole site from the back up

there is now 1 problem i cant fix and need your help

on my home page the index page loads from

http://www.divebuddha.x10hosting.com/index.php

but the first link button when u try to navigate back to that it gives me the x10 error page

my question is how the hell do i edit the link to that button so i can get it to link back after the page has originaly loaded?

if someones got time to check the link for us and tell me firstly whats wrong with it and secondly how to fix it

Well, your whole site is down now, if I understand you correctly the first page you get when you visit your site is:

http://www.divebuddha.x10hosting.com/index.php

but when you hit the back button it takes you to an x10 error? That's weird, I'd bet its due to one of the settings in your management system. Almost every management system has a spot in the config file where you have to set the base path of your website, I'd bet that the value in your config is wrong.

If your not using any management system, I'm stumped. Perhaps you can just set up your .htaccess file to redirect your homepage, but that seems like an awful hassle for something that should be basic.

it gives me the guesbook.php link when hitting the original buddha home button?

is there any way of editing that button so i can paste the index.html link into it

im using site reptile to edit my site at the moment ?

is there maybe a way of totaly unistalling the guestbook aplication perhaps?

any ideas would be good

I see no problem.
Maybe a cache/cookie on your PC problem left over from earlier.

It works fine for me. Try cleaning the browser cache.

Your BUDDHA HOME points to

http://www.divebuddha.x10hosting.com/

Which by default loads
http://www.divebuddha.x10hosting.com/index.php

Do you have an index.html page in the root?
