    Hello
    I am working on a site http://mygradregistry.com.
    When user goes to link " http://mygradregistry.com/username "
    then it should display the content of page "http://mygradregistry.com/profile.php" .
    How I can achieve this requirement?
    If htaccess is the best method then how I can do it with htaccess?

    Try this:

    

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule (.*)$ profile.php?username=$1

    When you say display content of the page are you referring to something like what stated above "profile.php?username=$1" or doing some other dynamic stuff with it?
