Request page without .aspx

Question

How can you request the root default.aspx without specifying it in the url for your root application?

e.g.

http://localhost/MyApp/ instead of http://localhost/MyApp/Default.aspx

should be able to do both

I'm not sure if this is a setting in IIS 7.5 for the application or what.

Answer 1

You can set the default document for your website in your web.config in the system.webserver section - there's some documentation on MSDN here on how to do it.

Answer 2

Yes, it's the Default Document setting in IIS.
