Rewrite 'silent' redirect

[mithrandir77]

Hi All,

 

I am trying to do a simple redirect using apache and mod_rewrite, but I need it to be 'silent', in order to make the URL requested in the browser unchanged.

This is the rewrite example:

http://xxxx.yyyy.zz/username -> http://username.yyyyy.zz

 

the rewrite rule is quite simple, but using redirect flag makes the browser to change the url requested in the title bar.

Is there a way to do it locally in apache webserver?

 

Thanks so much.
