Hi all,

I have created subdirectory for my website and I can access it like this..
http://mywebsite.com/subdir

But I would like to access it like this...
http://subdir.mywebsite.com

How can i get it?

Thanks in advance

Pradeep, You need to create a sub domain and point that to the directory.

http://subdir.mywebsite.com, this sub domain root folder would be

/subdir

this can be accessed either http://subdir.mywebsite.com or http://mywebsite.com/subdir

Hope this answers your question.
thanks,

thanks for the info..

but I don\'t have any option in my control panel (provided by web host) and in ftp site to create subdomain.

How can I create subdomain? Is there any method?

Thanks

I don\'t see any other option to have sub domain unless your hosting compnay supports it, may email them asking to setup sub domain for you.

Pradeep,
Can you explain what are you trying to accomplish with a subdirectory? Like any specific reason....
