Non-www and www Version Not The Same?

| Non-www and www Version Not The Same? Well, I was asked by our official city website webmaster to make a forum for the site since he has not much time and/or knowledge with "foruming". It turned out OK. We've installed the forum and all, no problem about that. The problem came with the domain. We used a subdomain for www.vigancity.gov.ph for the forum (forum.vigancity.gov.ph). But the problem is, the panel we are using (Plesk) is way different with cPanel. It's too much confusing. (I have no access to the panel). See, when we try to browse forum.vigancity.gov.ph with www in it, it won't work. (www.forum.vigancity.gov.ph). A friend told me, that's because they're different. But with my site (using cPanel), it's OK, so what might be the problem? And one thing more, forum.vigancity.gov.ph is different from vigancity.gov.ph/forum. Pretty weird. Any of you guys can help me with this? P.S. I am not trying to advertise the site. You wouldn't be interested anyway. LOL!

| Yes as I've mentioned above, a friend told me that and as I've mentioned above, my subdomain works even if you put a www like http://www.forums.soulstalk.com/ for instance, so I was just wondering why.

| Cool thanks. I'll tell that to the webmaster since I don't have access on the panel and all. Maybe I'll get his trust first. EDIT: LOL! Poor Ryan.
