Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had been able to achieve clean urls with Yahoo as his or her hosting service. I managed to find this quote in the help section. "Yahoo! does not currently allow you to upload .htaccess files to your account." Does this mean that there is no way to obtain clean urls while using yahoo? I haven't created my site yet so I don't have anything to show, however the link is here.

Thank you.

Does this basically mean that you can not use Yahoo and Indexhibit together? I have Yahoo and I can't seem to get this to work with it. Let me know if it is possible or if you were able to get it working... PLEASE!

Thanks! :)

Not with clean urls. Yahoo hosting is not normal hosting - you guys should understand this...

Thank you Vaska,

Any recommendations for a hosting service? I have had Yahoo for a few years but they are really expensive compared to what I've seen out there. Not supporting .htaccess may be the last straw for me.

No, we don't do recommendations around here. Ask your friends for solid advice.
