subdomains pulling in like a query string

[Brian Henry]

How would you do something like this?

normal query string (one i know how to do)

http://domain.com/?name=yourname

now that is easy, but what about this? I've seen some people doing it
recently...

http://yourname.domain.com/ and haveing the subdomain name being pased into
the site as a query string type that can be used on the default page on tht
folder... any idea's? thanks!

Hi Brian,

You want to do a Google search for "Vanity URL"

For example, go to this URL

http://www.samspublishing.com/dotnet_home/sampler/chapters/0672320681/ch15.html

and scroll down to the heading

Handling the Application_BeginRequest Event

for details.
