    I'm an idiot an deleted my index.html file

    I was trying to replace my index.html file so my page would load. I guess I deleted something in the wrong place. I haven't built web pages in a while and forgot some stuff. <-- bad memory. Wasn't sure if it was under www or public. Now when i go to my site it says "Index of /" where I can see my index.html file and can click on it. I need to know what I have to do to get my index.html file to just load automatically like usual. Any help would be sweet.

    Re: I'm an idiot an deleted my index.html file

    Probably not for this section but whatever,

    1. In cPanel's FileManager is the file still in there? or did you delete it some other way? because if you did it in the file manager you actually have to clikc the trashcan and answer yes... and if not you can just click on the file under the trashcan and have it put back into the directory.

    2. Depends, was this index file from your own personally made website, therefore you would have to make a new index.html and put it in there (or use the cPanel file manager to make a new one)

    well right now go to this link.

    http://intellitalkmi.x10hosting.com this is what i'm dealing with.

    The top file showing is index.html

    shouldn't that be the page displayed not this "index of /"

    I couldn't find any trash can in my file manager.

    remember that especially when making links some servers are case sensitive.
    Don't get me wrong as I believe if and when I help someone I also help myself whereby whatever someone learns I also learn.

    But I will also accept credits or reps if you really want to part with it.
