Re: IMDb - How it works?

another method using .htaccess files and Apache. <Files Title> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Files> This is for Apache 1.3.x. Apache 2.0.x does it a little different. jess. On Thursday, June 6, 2002, at 04:11 PM, Chris Knipe wrote:

Hi there, I am very interested in how the IMDb site works. For example: http://uk.imdb.com is the basic URL http://uk.imdb.com/Title?0068646 is the URL for a film (this example is

The

Godfather) http://uk.imdb.com/Details?0068646 is the URL for the film details... http://uk.imdb.com/Credits?0068646 is the URL for the film credits... and so on. How do they do this? do they have a page called "Title" and no variable

name

assigned? I think this would be a great way of linking if only I could

know

how it works. Any help much appreciated!
