If you type in these 2 URLs on your browser:

http://flexira . com/homepage

http://thebestira . com/homepage

You'll get actual websites. But here's the thing: the homepage part is html, it's not
a subfolder having an index file whatsoever.

Someone asked me how to create this effect in another website he's building for a
client of his. And I obviously don't know, which is why I'm here. :D

One thing he observed about those 2 is that they're in Unix/Linux platforms. His
client's hosting is in Windows, so he figured he might have to get it switched.

I'm guessing there's a file or configuration somewhere which creates this "effect".
But what exactly does that?

Is this an .htaccess or web.config thing? I've never seen this before.

Thanks.

(BTW, sorry about breaking up the URL. He doesn't the SEs finding it yet.)

Never mind, I found out it involves mod_rewrite. Thanks anyway!
