check out Xoops Malaysia

how do they removed 'modules' from their URL and renamed their modules to be more friendly...is it using domain fowarding ? htaccess ? like this? ....

i don't think their modify the modules core links..becoz as example they can access their forum from
http://www.xoopsmalaysia.org/forum/
or
http://www.xoopsmalaysia.org/modules/newbb

is there someone out there can share a guide to do url rewriting like in XM?

i posted a message at their forum but no response yet...

if anyone is interested to know the answer

..they did by using htaccess
