When try to add a page to a domain other than my primary, it puts the whole thing behind my primary domain with a "dot"

like this:

primary.secondary.newpage.

Secondary is it's own domain and I'd like people to see that and not my primary which doesn't have anthing do do with it.. ideas?

I recommend adding the domain as an addon in your control panel because addons will be a separate site all together.

When you add it as an addon domain you also need to make sure there was not redirect set up in the addon domain screen. Usually an addon will resolve as both addondomain.com and addondomin.primarydomain.com, etc. If you want the addondomin.primarydomain.com url  to not resolve but be redirected back to your addondomain.com URL you can add a rewrite to your .htaccess file to take care of this.

You need to create a subdomain in order to acheive this. I belive that you want to create pages like these:
contact.domain.com/ index.domain.com/ about-us.domain.com/ etc, right?
If yes than you need to create sub-domains and copy an index.html file in the sub-domain directories. Smile
