Hi there, I'm using Rackspace's Cloud Sites as a webhost and, for a site that uses both PHP and ASP, they have a funny setup. On our setup, PHP is the default technology, and so the site by default runs Apache, until it hits a URL ending with the .asp extension. That means this URL: www.site.com/folder/ Will not automatically load: ...
My Code Igniter app has urls like this: http://servername/contexttroot/index.php/Sessions/login/ My question is, when the url is parsed how does Apache know that there isn't a folder called index.php? If I were the parser, that's what I would be looking for :) I know it works and CI's index.php gets called but I don't understand how t...

I need to redirect all URLs under blog.mydomain.com to www.mydomain.com/...
