Hi,
I want to create easy to remember URL then will redirect it to the long name URL, let say the original URL is www.mydomain.com/index.php?aplikasi=Katalog_v2&status=1&id=234 , so I want to use easy to remember URL like this www.mydomain.com/Katalog to redirect to the original URL above. I had try using Cpanel redirect function but it doesn't work. Can anyone help me on this.
TQ

Supposing you're using PHP for redirection process, you can always the header module. ;)
With HTML, it would be with meta.

I'd recommend using .htaccess files to do such work.
However, there's plenty of methods available: http://www.webconfs.com/how-to-redirect-a-webpage.php

whatever url you want redirected, just place this in the file.
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
document.location.href = "http://**URLHERE**";
</SCRIPT>
another example...
<html>
<head>
<title>**TITLE**</title>
</head>
<body>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
document.location.href = "http://**URLHERE**";
</SCRIPT>
</body></html>

Actually the URL www.mydomain.com/katalog just the name and there is no folder or file name katalog but I want to create an easy to remember URL for the long URL http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?aplikasi=Katalog_v2&status=1&id=234 . So visitor only need to know www.mydomain.com/katalog instead the long URL. If you said using PHP or HTML which file I need to put that code because 'katalog' is not a folder or file. It just a name.
Thank You,

Search this forum for mod_rewrite and search engine friendly URLs, it's been answered many times now.

What's header module? header function does exist. Time to learn the terms already don't you think?

You can use also .htaccess file for this problem, if you are running Apache of course. :)

If you wanted a "redirect" function in php - it would probably look like this,
header ('Location: http://sitehere.com');
That would be the "header function/module" you would be talking about.
Edit: Oops, I reread your post and realised that you were correcting another person. Sorry. ;)
