What You Can Do:
You can use mod_rewrite to redirect the browser to any page of your choosing, say: yoursite.com/stuff.php [OR]

>> Actually, of course mod_rewrite can change what is shown in the browser URL line. I use mod_rewrite to do just that all the time. Putting [R] at the end of a rewriterule line will redirect folks to the "new" URL.

You can serve the information from any page of your choosing including: yoursite.com/stuff.php without changing the location in the browser.

>> And, no, the actual file doesn't have to exist in order to write a mod_rewrite rule to direct someone to it.

The location displayed (added: in the browser) must either be requested or redirected to.

Please read and understand what is being said before you confuse people.

Somehow I'm sure Jim would have corrected any errors I made in my post as it is designed to be basic, and leading people in the wrong direction from the start would not be something he would allow to happen.
