Problems linking to blog - no index.html (4 posts)

    First off, I have my blog set up perfectly on my server, http://www.cmcintoshphoto.com/blog/
    That link alone works. What doesn't is when I try to link it from my homepage or anything, pretty much. /blog/, ../blog/, even the direct link. It recognizes the link and assumes I am referring to /blog/index.html. Since this page doesn't exist (and creating it wouldn't really make it any better) how do you use the URL of your blog?

    I am using Dreamweaver CS4 for FTP & godaddy for hosting.

    I have a similar problem at http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com

    if I physically type in http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com/blog

    the wordpress theme loads and everything is fine. However, from http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com and to click on my "blog" link at the top, it continually gives either a database error or a hosting splash page. I have tried linking to http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com/blog/index.php
    http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com/blog/wp-blog-header.php and
    http://www.rawrecipeschocolate.com/blog/wp-config.php

    but with no avail. Dreamweaver needs a specific file to point to but no matter which .php file I give I can't get it to load the blog the same as if I physically type it. My question is, how do I link to a wordpress blog from all other html pages on my site? Do I have to Externally link to it?

    any help is appreciated! thanks
