Joomla index redirect

Question

Hi,

I want to redirect the index.php to index.html. But in the index.html user has 2 options, 1. to go to a specific section (or) 2. go to actual index.php i.e. our actual site is running with index.php, but we want to highlight a section, so first we want the user to come to index.html & go to mainsite if he wants to.

How can I do this? I have tried htaccess, but it is giving an infinite loop.

A somewhat inelegant solution is to move your Joomla site into a subdirectory (say /site), leaving your index.html page where it is. The downside is that this would break any links pointing to specific locations on your site.
