Is there a way to get to a page w/o typing .htm at the end

[Guest]

Is there a way to set up a page so someone go to it without typing .htm at
the end. (i.e. www.abccompany.com/shipping instead of
www.abccompany/shipping.htm)?

Thanks,

Name the page <your host's default filename - ask them> and put it into a
folder named "shipping". Since it's the default filename, it will load if
no filename is specified.

Create a folder called shipping and put a page in there called index.htm.

On Apache, you can achieve this using the directive

Options +MultiViews

in your .htaccess, cf.
<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#options>.

Another way would be to create a directory "shipping" and place a default
document (usually "index.html" or "Default.html") in it. Your server will
do a "courtesy redirect" from <http://www.abccompany.com/shipping> to
<http://www.abccompany.com/shipping/>.
