Hi guys, I have found the forums a great help as a lurcher, but now its time to jump in with a question!


Is there a way to read the url and then use that info i.e. in my case for re-direction

to put it into context, what I would like to do, it allow someone to hit e.g.

http://www.example.com/nick

then say... it would redirect to my forum profile for instance

cheers in advance!!!

Try looking up mod_rewrite in a search engine
