Ruby on Rails

Thanks guys, ill give those a go. I have different namespaces, nested
resources etc so im not expecting it to be straight forward. Its not
about keeping the user data in the url, its more about personalising
the url to the client so it has their name in it and some branding on
the front end. Personally i would go down the subdomain route but the
client im developing it for wants it this way. :(
