mySpace.com url re-writing?

[shoombool_tala]

I just noticed on mySpace.com each user get their own kind of virtual directory. For example if you type www.myspace.com/nodoubt it goes to one profile or if you typw www.myspace.com/blackout it goes to another.

How do they do this? I want so www.mydomain.com/name1 would point to
www.mydomain.com/profile.php?id=1

or www.mydomain.com/name2 would point to
www.mydomain.com/profile.php?id=2

How can I do that?

Thanks a lot

Have your host set up virtual directory.
Or, create that directory and put an index.htm file that redirects to the correct profile.
