Hello,
I would like to be able to allow a user to call a default script and be passed a parameter to allow shorter urls for a particular listing.
For example, I can call fsboi.net/home/12345 where home is a php script and 12345 is the parameter passed to it, this works great.
But, when I try to do the same thing with fsboi.net/12345 apache doesn't call the default page (index.php) and pass it 12345, it tries to call a script called 12345 and fails with a 404 error. I see other people using this technique, is there another way, perhaps through a custom 404 handler?
Thanks for any advice,
Wally
