Guess I need to give more info.
This is a private site that the school does not want accessed via the
open web.
They don't have an intranet, so what we are doing is making it only
available through a site that they contract (edline.net).
In this way, school members log into edline first with a username and
pw, then they see the link to the private site.
In order to keep general web visitors from even seeing the home page,
I am requiring a certain variable be present. If the variable is not
present, we re-direct to the school site which is public.
So the problem is that I don't even want the members to see the
variable, or it might unintentionally get out.
I don't even want them to know that a variable is being passed. If
they see the id in the url, they might pass it on and the result is
the same.
So...I was hoping that somehow I could accept the variable but hide
it by re-writing the url.
Is something like that possible?

OK, got it. If it were me, I'd probably just put the values in
question in
a lookup table with an associated ID and put the ID in the URL.
Since the relationship of the ID and value is arbitrary, there's no
way
to derive the value (without following the link, at which point I'd
think
it would be apparent, but maybe not).
Anyway, HTH!
