I played with: SetEnv QUERY_STRING <something>...and various conditional rules for a while, but haven't had much success. In fact, I don't even seem to be able to set the query string in a way that a PHP script will pick up. Does Apache even allow this? (Relatedly, doesthis require mod_rewrite?) Any help or advice would be much appreciated.Yes, you need mod_rewrite: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/muon1/banner_(.*)\.jpg$ http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/banner.php?user=$1 [R] Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
