Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I have had a similar question once, where I asked the same about nofollow:

http://www.seomoz.org/q/will-a-mega-menu-on-all-pages-dilute-the-link-juice

In the thread the following was posted:

Should I consider setting "nofollow" for some of the links on other pages than the homepage?

Definitely not. When you nofollow a link, you do not save any link juice. You stop the link juice of flowing to the link but it does not flow to other links on your page.

Best regards,

The first portion of your code seems correct, although the line breaks are a bit off in the post? We have a similar approach for forwarding non-www to www-pages.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC]  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

I've google a bit and found the following code:

All in all, I would say your .htaccess code should be:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC]  
RewriteRule ^(.)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301] 
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^./index.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Best way to get an answer? Try uploading the .htaccess code and see if it works - if not, take it down again and correct the code. However the above should work I should think.
