mod_rewrite on get vairables?

[akasquid]

Hey
You know how sites like Newgrounds work, with http://USERNAME.newgrounds.com or http://VARIABLE.site.com and then it takes that word, how's it done?

Presumably it's done with $_GET['variable']; but how would i tell the script that the GET is that string?

Is it with mod_rewrite? A link would be helpful, or even a code snippet explaining, ty. :)

User goes to http://LOLHI.website.com then page then echo's "LOLHI", because LOLHI is the $variable.

Googling the most obvious string, "php subdomain as variable", I got many results. One of those pages should help you.

Forgot about this topic //2

I solved it, had to update my server config to allow for wildcard domains etc.
