redirecting domain to index.php via php script

I can't manage to make my site being automatically redirected to my index.php file from my domain, that is, I can't: www.mysite.com ==> www.mysite.com/index.php when I enter www.mysite.com

I can't edit any .htacces or similar configuration file, cause my site is Hosted on a hosting service provider which doesn't allow me to edit such files. Do I have a way with some php script, to be able to redirect my main domain to index.php ? Thks M.

If you are able to edit your .htaccess, you could use this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com$
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.example.com/index.php [L,R=301]

But if you aren't, then you could add this in your index.html file:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1;url=http://www.mysite.com/index.php">

This is an acceptable solution and works just fine but it's certainly not the best solution.

Hope this helps!

Remove the index.html page from your site and add index.php page then,

It will redirect to www.mysite.com/index.php
