Okay, here's the deal. I have this website for me and some friends. I got the webspace from dartworth (guy who offers free web hosting to AT members) at http://iamaelephant.bluemonday.org/
A few days later I registered the domain name http://www.iamaelephant.net and set the name servers to the IP addresses that dartworth gave me. I then went into the cPanel for my website and under Site Management Tools I clicked on Parked Domains and entered my domain name (iamaelephant.net) into that.
Now it seems to be working fine except one annoying thing - if you enter any web address on my site without a trailing "/" or file extension (.html, .php etc.) then the address in the address bar reverts back to http://iamaelephant.bluemonday.org/whatever
For example, I have an image gallery set up. If I go to http://www.iamaelephant.net/gallery/ it works fine, but if I go to http://www.iamaelephant.net/gallery (notice no trailing "/") then the web address gets screwed up (try it for yourself if you don't understand).
What can I do to fix this? Was using the "Parked Domain" option the wrong way to go about it?
