I have an url localhost/viewprofile.php?username=johngood23 and I want it to rewritten as johngood23.localhost using htaccess.

This is what I tried but failed to do so. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.localhost\.com [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ viewprofile.php?username= $1

To do this you'll need to manipulate dns and create a virtual host in apache. – Professor Abronsius Dec 27 '15 at 11:55
And how do we do that? @ramrider? – Dangerous Programmer Dec 27 '15 at 13:51
