Author UserDir with '@' Sign
Nasir

2004-02-25, 9:35 am

Hello,


I want to know if we can give/enable a UserDir in such a way that
instead of using syntax like

http://www.domain.tld/~user/

We could use


http://user@domain.tld/



and the UserDir specified page openes.
I know this is possible but I am missing the syntax.If someone else
knows about this fact please let me know.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Nasir Mahmood.

keep in mind that this syntax will no longer work on IE Win, as MS
decided to not support it any longer.

By the way, you'll probabely need to use mod_rewrite for this job.

As far as I know, the @ symbol is used for HTTP authentication:

http://user:password@domain.com/path/file
