Virtual Directories

[rh_arris]

Hi All!

Firstly, sorry if I have posted this in the wrong forum!

I'm kind of in a bit of a dilema. I dont want my users to see a url such as http://www.rhwebdesign.net/profile.php?id=1.

How do I do a virtual directory in PHP that can interact with mysql, and hence, create a "virtual" directory relative to the ID or title.

Help would be appreciated =D

Thankyooou!

I think you should use mod_rewrite:

I really do not want to use mod_rewrite - because I have no access to it.

Is there an easier way to get exactly what I want to achieve using PHP and MYSQL ?

Thanks
