How would I get an ASIN to go like www.mysite.com/product/ASIN ?

I'm using the code from Dev Shed.

Make sure you have the "product" file set up in .htaccess to be parsed by PHP.

then in product do:

$var_array = explode("/",$PATH_INFO);
$asin = $var_array[1];

In product it should be $asin = $var_array[2]; shouldn't it chromate?

The numbering will start at 0, so the second one is $var_array[1].

Not unless the asin occurs two slashes after the file name it's been referred to from. lol. If you follow that! :)

Incka, I'm on MSN Messenger but that's it.

OK, My MSN is sean@incka.com, but it only works 2 out of 4 days.

I'm using the same format, mysite.com/products/asin, and I use $var_array[2] that's all.

Mark has given me free advertising on his site though. If I had to pay it would be quite expensive I would have thought, so the least I can do is give him the script I am using.
