Simple PHP script need help

[Bear]

Hi all,

I have a redirection problem which need some php expert to help.

I have a php script in my server and a lot of webmasters point to this script. It's like:
http://www.doamin.com/top.php?username

But I need to change it to another script, I want to change it to something like:
http://www.doamin.com/in.php?id=username

Can anybody teach me to to write a redirect script for top.php? So that all request for top.php will forward to in.php and also keeep the "username" variable. Thanks a lot.

Top.php should contain a line of code that checks for a username and then does some action based on the username being present or not. I forget what the variable is, I think it's $QUERY_STRING but I'm not entirely sure. Look in the script and you'll see what I mean, it should look something like this:

if (isset($QUERY_STRING)) {
[do some stuff here]
}
else {
[do something else]
}

Simply replace all the stuff it would normally do with:

$username = $QUERY_STRING;
header("Location: in.php?id=$username");

If you know a little PHP you should be able to figure it out... it's kinda hard to explain without seeing the original top.php code.
