I am confused by routes and I'm trying to learn how to use them. I see this example, thinking it might apply to my situation, "^[client]:[protocol]://[hostname]:[method] [url]$"
and really I am just not sure how to do what I need because I don't know enough, so I am just trying things until I get a result. So from what you wrote, routes are only ever used on domains and their subdomains on the same physical host. I have two apps on two different hosts with two different domains. I am trying to set up a menu so that I can get from one to the other. I don't know how to do the url redirect sending the app to a different host, so I thought I needed to use routes. There must be a way to do this, and if you'd kindly tell me what to read in the manual that would be helpful. thanks On Tuesday, February 26, 2013 8:39:27 PM UTC-6, Jonathan Lundell wrote: > > On 26 Feb 2013, at 6:32 PM, greaneym <grea...@gmail.com <javascript:>> > wrote: > > If the parametric routes format is used to route domains, do the domains > have to be on the same physical host?
