In Flash, set the publishing options to generate an html page along
with the .swf file.

This will automatically include the bits and pieces to make your
flash object appear in the web page, which you can rename if needed.

The html/script will look ugly as all get out because of certain
IE idiosyncrasies, but it will work for all those who visit your
site with javascript enabled.

Oh, and be prepared to get flamed if your web site is basically
built using Flash.

If you are using Apache, you should be able to create a file
called .htaccess where capitolholdingsite.swf is with these contents:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond ^/(index.html)?$ [NC]
RewriteRule - /capitolholdingsite.swf

This will physically redirect the browser to your swf file, if you
want that.
