I think you should to one more rewrite before the other rules and that is
RewriteRule /$ /index\.html
or
RewriteRule ^/$ /index\.html
as you need.

Hi,
I'm using mod_rewrite to send .html files as application/xhtml+xml for
agents that say they accept it, and text/html for all others, using
mod_rewrite.
At the moment I simply have a .htaccess file with
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} \.html$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} application/xhtml\+xml
RewriteRule .* - [T=application/xhtml+xml]
This works fine on, for example,
http://chrisseaton.skylis.net/index.html, but it does not work on, for
example, http://chrisseaton.skylis.net/. mod_rewrite doesn't seem to
be applied when serving a default file for a directory.
I tested this by modifying my .htaccess to read
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule .* - [T=application/xhtml+xml]
With this every file should be served as application/xhtml+xml, and
they all were, apart from the default file for the directory - which
still went out as the .html default of text/html.
I'm using Mozilla HTTP live headers to check the MIME type returned by
the server.
Can anyone help? Thanks a lot.
