How do I make a URL (testwebsite.com/test) appear to be test.testwebsite.com?

Question

I have heard that this can be done with php. I am pretty sure that forumup.com (a website that you can make your own forum) uses not subdomains for the created forums, but folders that appear to be subdomains. (ie bla.forumup.com = forumup.com/bla).

The easiest way is to use the 404 error page directive to redirect to a php page that does this. Check out the pages here
