How would you remove the index.php when visiting a url?

[helloworld001]

Right now my website url appears like this. http://www.mywebsite.com/index.php

 

I was wondering if there is a way to remove the index.php and just have it show like this when someone goes to the website? http://www.mywebsite.com

Don't put "index.php" in your links. If the file doesn't load automatically then your web server doesn't know that it can treat index.php as an "index" file in a directory.

 

Or are you talking about redirecting from /index.php to /?

I've never done so, but am certain it has to do with Apache (or equal) and probable mod_rewrite.
