I need to make a redirect using the variable _SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]
this is to grab the url the user request and then use it to redirect the users to the new forums and to the page requested.

I need to know wich file shoul i edit, cause doing it in the index.php doesn't make any effect. perhaps global.php?

Thanks

mod_rewrite
Don't know what exactly is mod_rewrite... I'm not a codder but just though that i could figure out how to make a redirect using the above function.
I just changed domain and need to redirect people to the new but letting them get exactly the page they wanned.

If you have suggestions, they are very wellcome.

How could I do that?

I need help on this :(

is there a way to know the requested url from a user? let say a url like www.site.com/forum/showthread.php?t=322 (http://www.site.com/forum/showthread.php?t=322)

and redirect him to
www.site2.com/forum/showthread.php?t=322 (http://www.site2.com/forum/showthread.php?t=322)
