Help with htaccess set up

Hi,

We have a html website installed which we are moving to a WP site.

We have just installed the latest WP site.

Because we want to have access to both sites while we make the chnages we need a htaccess site to do this.

At the moment the htaccess send the visitor to the html site which is what we want.

We also want to be able to put in the index.php address of teh WP site and go there.

How can we do this please?

Thanks

oz

This is what they have done in htaccess now..

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule index\.php index.html [NC,R]

#RewriteBase /
#RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
