    How do I point www. to http on my domain?

    Having a user typing www. brings up my site, but that messes up facebook apps.

    I want www to automatically redirect to http

    Thanks

    When you say "http" do you mean the domain without "www"?

    By default the domain without www should bring up your site...

    Then you need to add this URL Rewrite code to your web.config file:

    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="Redirect www to non-www">
                    <match url="(.*)" />
                    <conditions>
                        <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^mysite\.com$" negate="true" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Redirect" url="http://mysite.com/{R:1}" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>
    Replacing mysite.com with your domain name.
