I have just uploaded a html file to my free web space. How do I get it to be displayed automatically with ie?

My html file is not shown when my page link is used in internet explorer, it is shown as a file in my server directory, to display it I have to click on the file, it then opens . Should I be adding something to my html document. Please point me in the right direction.

1. If it is home page, you have to rename it to be INDEX.HTML or HOME.HTML
2. In general, the Web server is set up to choose a file to display if the filename is not specified. Generally, the file chosen is one called index.html (some servers use default.html instead). So http://www.myhost.com/mydir/ is the same as http://www.myhost.com/mydir/index.html . If index.html doesn't exist, a directory listing will be displayed, which is what you're seeing. To get the file to display automatically, just change its name to index.html (or whatever your server's default is -- your hosting provider's tech support can tell you this).
