Kaitosoto Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 If mod_rewrite cannot do this, then can you tell me what I can do to hide something like: http://www.mysite.com/index.php?identity=8&linkstart=http://www.mysite.com/stuff/&linkend=03928423/thisimage39.jpg to http://www.mysite.com/index.php The point of it is, to not allow users to know what identity=8 part as the variable for identity would be generated randomly by the script itself on index.php, which stores it using GET into a variable $identifynum. The point of it is, I do not want users to be abusing the script by typing in randomly identity=9, identity=10, etc in the browser to execute it with their number. by their own leisure to execute the script. I figured by using mod_rewrite, I would be able to hide the variables as I believe it is possible to hide them by rewriting the actual identity=8 to something like id=8 so that users would not be able to see any of the args in the browser line as they would only see the index.php, while still enabling me to use the $_GET from the url that it is being redirected to.

wildteen88 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 You cannot do this with mod_rewrite. However what you'll want to do is perhaps implement sessions or use POST instead.
