Re: [nyphp-talk] Howto create custom URLs

[Donald J Organ IV]

P.S.   mod_rewrite is usually enabled or can be enabled on any simple hosting plan that is using apache, if you encounter a host that uses apache and wont turn it on, i would suggest finding another host.

The app is developed on my company server, so special configurations are not a problem. However, its a software product, that will be deployed on hosting company servers, so I'm not sure if I will have the ability to run apache mods (if that's the answer).   Thanks!   - Ben   ProjectSkyline.com Ben Sgro - Chief Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
