Public Service Message: ../index.htm
June 23, 2009 – 10:05 pmOne of my pet peeves is when people post links or URLs in prominent locations (posters, advertisements, etc) with the “/index.htm” or “/default.php” or “/default.aspx” or any of the derivatives of these. Please people – with very few exceptions, URLs with default.htm or index.htm or things like those do not have to have those parts of the URL!
For example, the NCHS of the CDC website can be accessed at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/Default.htm or at the much better looking URL http://www.cdc.gov/nchs.
Just some helpful advice. Please take these annoying little parts off of web addresses so that it looks cleaner. Thank you.
