Rob:

I get the same page no matter which of those two I use. The address bar shows [ 
http://www.dekko.com/GroupDekko/Index.html ] for one and [ 
http://dekko.com/GroupDekko/Index.html ] for the other; the results are 
identical in my browser.

Further, AFAIK, some (most?) browsers will automatically try [ www.domain.name 
] after failing with [ domain.name ]. That's been the case for a few years at 
least with Netscape. I've never looked, but I imagine it's a preference 
somewhere in at least some of them.
