Is it possible to set up a directory as a proxy for another domain on a different server? i.e. www.domain.com/directory is set up so when you go to that address you are actually looking at info from www.otherdomain.com.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, this can be accomplished in a number of ways........

Using .htaccess is one such method, although others will suggest more.

.htaccess will only work if the domains are on the same package.

.htaccess will only work if the domains are on the same package.

In other words if the domain that is being proxied is on another server (non powweb) it won't work?

If it does work as suggested by IanS how would I go about it?

If they are on the same package - IE share the same web-space, then you'd use the site tools within OPS or the domain manager tools by extras.

A very cheap way to do it is to make an iframe. But it works. :) (Screw iframes though!) Lol.
