Consider the following URL's: 1. stacks/leo 2. stacks/Panthera_leo The first is "recognized" by my database and fetches information. The second doesn't work. If I concatenate then split the link as you suggest, will it produce a link that looks like #2 yet is recognized by my database? If so, I'll learn how to do those functions. > Can there be spaces in these names? If so, maybe > use a dash for space, > that way, there's no chance of ambiguity.

However, I'm leaning towards underscores ( _ ) for this particular page and hyphens ( - ) on a topics page. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
