Custom URL forwarding

[AHarvey]

Hi all,

Looking for advice but on url forwarding but not your normal redirect issues (i don't think).

I want to be able to generate a url in the following fashion:

domain.co.uk/customername.incrementingNumber

then when it hits my site I want to forward that onto another URL. The thing is the customers need to be able to login to an admin panel and change the outgoing URL themselves.

How would you suggest is the best way of approaching this?

It'll be with Vidahost on their cloud hosting which is Linux based as far as I am aware.

oh no I was looking at writing it from the ground up, just after advice on how others would approach it.

I was thinking PHP + MySQL as I know more about these than anything and it'll make a good project to really learn on
