Why not use some kind of SES URL parser like Ionic or apache's mod_rewrite and strip that off. Or you could set up a 404 page that attempts to look up the user based on whatever is after the '/' and pass the corresponding user info to Flex. I'd pass just the ID then grab the rest of the data as necessary through remoting.

Flex includes the pound symbol at the end of every URL (http://www.mysite.com/folder/# <http://www.mysite.com/folder/> ). Is it possible to remove the pound symbol (http://www.mysite.com/folder/)? 2. In a social networking site, could 'user' in the URL, www.socialsite.com/user, be parsed by Flex to display that user's profile? This does not seem possible but a client asked for it.
