This is how I would do it... actually have done too, only not with the
metraplex name.. :)
To visit the "Homepage" of <Metraplex> on the World Wide Web <if you wnat to
make it flowery>, using your Internet WebBrowser, open the folllowing URL: http://www.metraplex.com./<optional>
These addresses ARE case sensitive. <optional>... the default is to open a
file called index.hmtl (must have the l to work) otherwise, you have to
also specify the name of the file you wnat them to see first ie., http://www
.your.homepage/firstread.htm
