I'm having a problem getting something accomplished. I have vBulletin forums on one subdomain that I need to pull into the bottom frame of a frameset on another subdomain. Before anybody asks... I've asked my sysadmin if we can put the forums on the same subdomain and was told no.

Now, I've had no problem pulling the forums into the frame, but my problems start if someone trys to follow a link to a particular thread from something like an email notification of a post or something of the sort. I've tried doing a mod_rewrite rule on the server that the forums are on but I can't seem to get that correct either. I need to catch everything after the domian and pass it as a querystring to the frame that the forum is in. Here's the last incarnation of what didn't work:



I'm also aware that this method might not be the best way to accomplish this and I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks to anyone making sense of my rant.

Okay, I've almost gotten the redirect part done. I'm using this code in an htaccess file on the server the forums are on.



The only problem is I'm not getting all of what I expect for the query string. My test URL for redirect looks like this:

code:
http://thissub.site.com/showthread.php?t=1&goto=newpost


All I'm getting after the redirect is the showthread.php part. Nothing after the ? is coming along with it.

Anybody have any ideas why or any solutions that would work better?

Thanks

read up on your doc - you get the real query string in a variable.
It's called ${QUERY_STRING} or some such.

Thanks for giving me something to google on TP. I've been to the Apache Mod_rewrite docs but they aren't the easiest things to read.
