Ok, Dumb Question

Right ok if i have,

http://mysite.com/Chris

Chris being a users username

How can i make that redirect to

http://mysite.com/members.php?user=Chris&MemberId=&1

The folder automatically creates when a user registers, but i want it to redirect to the page..

Try for ages, can't figure it out..

Thanks

.htaccess with ModRewrite

CODE
RewriteEngine On // - you are starting rewrite mod :)
RewriteBase / // - you set the rewrite base
RewriteRule ^(.+)/?$ members.php?user=$1&MemberId=$2 // and rule:
// ^(.+) - text ONLY
// ([0-9]+) - numbers ONLY

That makes absolutly no sense to me, ive never used htaccess before

Code:

---

RewriteEngine On // - you are starting rewrite mod
RewriteBase / // - you set the rewrite base
RewriteRule ^(.+)/?$ members.php?user=$1&MemberId=$2 // and rule:
// ^(.+) - text ONLY
// ([0-9]+) - numbers ONLY

add that to the file named .htaccess in /public_html/

You dont need to make folders, use mod_rewrite, else just put an index file in that folder.

I tried this

but customized it to

Code:

---

RewriteEngine On // - you are starting rewrite mod
RewriteBase / // - you set the rewrite base
RewriteRule ^members/(.+)/?$ members.php?MemberId=$1 // and rule:
// ^(.+) - text ONLY
// ([0-9]+) - numbers ONLY

---

and got

Internal Server Error
