change live path of joomla web site

[crystallite]

hi. i just have installed joomla and to enter in the site i have to put http://name.x10hosting.com/joomla/. the question is how can i do to be able to enter the site putting only http://name.x10hosting.com
i tried to modify configuration.php and putting $mosConfig_live_site = 'http://name.x10hosting.com/joomla' like $mosConfig_live_site = 'http://neteruk.x10hosting.com; but it then the site is browsing badly, without pictures...
what can i do?

There are 3 way as far as I no:

1. Create the php file http://name.x10hosting.com/index.php , and use the php include thing. (SEF URLs won't work here)
2. Use .htaccess
3. Reinstall Joomla in the public_html directory (not in a subdirectory).

This is only a quick summary, if you need help with any of the above i might be able to do it (but I don't no .htaccess)
