This should usually be possible. I'd first try this, as any other solution will be more complicated and has higher admin overhead. If that is not possible have a look at mod_proxy_html. This is the only module I know of that will rewrite HTML contents. mod_rewrite and mod_proxy will not do this. Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx krist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
