URL Rewrite

["Rod Behr" <Rod.Behr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

 

New to Apache, but learning fast. Knocks IIS into a cocked hat, but I have a newbie question:

 

I have looked through the documentation and examples for the mod_rewrite module and although I think my request is simple, I cannot find the solution to it in either this documentation or the “Practical Solutions to Common Problems” section. Google throws me back to these same pages.

 

I want my browser to display only the root canonical URL while browsing: http://www.mydomain.com. Whatever is contained in the URL or querystring following this should not appear in the browser window. So http://www.mydomain.com/index.pl or http://www.mydomain.com/app/subapp/file.extension?var=something&anothervar=somethingelse should both simply show http://www.mydomain.com in the browser window. The iFrame solution works to a point, but that still reveals the filename containing the iFrame – I want this hidden also.

 

Simple, I know, but search as I might…

 

Many thanks for the assist!

 

Rod
