I set up a game script for a new domain name videopokergame.us. The script is located at /cgi-bin/ directory, but I want the script to load on the main index page... don't know how to do that. As a workaround, I set up a redirect from the main index.html file as follows:
<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0; URL=http://videopokergame.us/cgi-bin/sfepoker.cgi">

However, I'm not convinced that's good. Is there a better way to set up the cgi script to be loaded as the default front page? Especially so that it wouldn't harm the SEO?

Or maybe, from a SEO point of view, it'd be better to have a separate front page with general information and a link to the game page?

Thanks for any help & ideas

I would'nt use too much JS as you say. could you not load each game up into a popup frameless window for each game on your main page?

put a one-line .htaccess file in root diectory (where your index.html file is)

DirectoryIndex /cgi-bin/NameOfGameScript.cgi

That's assuming you have a hosting account that makes you run scripts in a cgi dir - otherwise this would be a moot point, just rename & move the script
