I've got a little hand rolled function here for doing the same > thing with $REQUEST_URI. At the moment the subcategories are loaded using the url variable viewCat which just passes the category ID. Instead of this: http://dir.evolt.org/index.php?viewCat=30 I would like to show this: http://dir.evolt.org/coding/client-side/css/ using mod_rewrite the actual location of the page would be: http://dir.evolt.org/index.php?urlstring=coding/client-side/css/ I've written a function that will convert this url string back into a catID, and another one to take a catID and create the url string (which is used for building links). Now you can do a similar thing using $PATH_INFO, or $REQUEST_URI but as far as I know you would still need to include the filename like this: http://dir.evolt.org/index.php/coding/client-side/css/ which I would like to avoid. I know you can fiddle with the types a bit to get something a bit nicer like: http://dir.evolt.org/directory/coding/client-side/css/ but I'd rather exclude that extra level all together if possible. If you know of any way of doing what I'm trying to do with $REQUEST_URI then that would be great! Simon
