I think this is more of a webserver feature than a programming language one. In Apache, for example, there is an alias directive which allows you do do what you describe: Alias /partofURLafterdomainname /path/to/files/in/filesystem If you don't have access to change your Appache configuration file, you may be able to accomplish this in a .htaccess file in the top web directory. Another choice, though more complex, is mod_rewrite, an Apache module which lets you rewrite URLs. These can sometimes be run in a .htaccess file as well. James _____ James D.
