I have a website with 000webhost, and I was wondering how I can get a url like this: Website.com/ITCMDN to forward to Website.com/ITCMDN.html Like I don't want people to have to type in the .html part, and I know this must be possible. Should I put something in my Index.html? Thanks!

This has nothing to see with PHP nor HTML, it depends on you web server – gogaz Dec 17 '17 at 12:47

I think its PHP 5 – Mark Deven Dec 18 '17 at 12:24

@gogaz routing can and does happen in php too. Indeed, it's possible to do from the server, but php side routing allows for much more liberty. – Félix Adriyel Gagnon-Grenier Nov 13 '18 at 16:16

Try placing this in your .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [L,R=301]
