Erik Weinmaster	Monday 04 April 2011 12:39:30 pm Let me start by specifying what I've done so far. I am a long time Exponential user and I started my own personal project with it that only myself and my family uses. So what I have recently done is put my project online. Right now I have Exponential 4.4 on a shared host (linux and php5.x options) with Godaddy (No scoffing, this is not a high volume high traffic site. I can get by on the ultra cheap). I tried to do some research to see if I can have a virtual host setup as to not include the index file in the url. I'm not sure I found the right answer, but as far as I can tell, its not possible. No bother, I'm using the .htaccess file. The problem is, when I log onto the site there is the question mark in the url like this www.test.com/index.php?/manage. I'm used to seeing the url without the question mark www.test.com/index.php/manage. Is there something I need to include in the .htaccess file in order to remove the question mark? On my local computer I have everything set up the same and don't get the ?. Also, yes, technically if I include the ? my site works fine. So this is not really an issue, I just don't like seeing it there. Thanks, -erik
