.htaccess redirect to certain directory based on username entered.

[nickfran]

Using .htaccess can I redirect user to certain directory based on the username and password they enter? I.E.

 

1. I have a .htacess password protected directory, www.mydomain.com/protected

2. Based on the username or password they enter can they be redirected to their own personal directory?

3. If username is john.smith they go to www.mydomain.com/protected/1 but if username is jane.smith then they would go to www.mydomain.com/protected/2 and so on....

 

Can this be done in PHP? Thanks!

sure can.

switch($username) {

case: "john.smith":

header("Location: www.mydomain.com/protected/1");

break;

 

case: "jane.smith":

header("Location: www.mydomain.com/protected/1");

break;

}
