[resolved] Changed URL to root, now just ONE page gives me 403 error (2 posts)

    As it says above, I've been running WP in the mysite.com/wordpress folder. I had a lot of problems doing it, but I finally got the URL changed to mysite.com, while leaving all the wp files in the mysite.com/wordpress location.

    Everything about the site is fine...except one page. One page gives me a 403 error and says I don't have permission to view it. The page is marked public, not password protected or anything, but I'm guessing that doesn't matter as I imagine this is a server thing anyway.

    I don't know if this is relevant, but the one thing that is different about this page is that the entry contains some Javascript to make popup windows. I know WP can be fussy about what code it lets you run, but it's never been a problem before. I just mention it because it does seem to be the one difference.

    This site has taken forever and I just want it done. Can anyone give me a clue as to what might be doing this?

    Aha! Previous searching of the forums didn't bring up what I needed, but I tried again and found this: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/293287?replies=2

    Basically, I had a folder in my root directory with the same name as the page. Changed the folder name, all is well.
