It sounds to me like you imagine that a request can be plucked out of the ether before it reaches a host and redirected to somewhere of your choosing. Your clients must first buy the domain "clientsite.com" and then set up the redirect as suggested using any of the usual methods, including the specific one provided by Alvaro.
When someone types the URL "http://www.clientsite.com" into their browser address bar, the browser contacts their ISP and asks for the IP address of the host "www.clientsite.com". The ISP knows the IP address because the domain name has been bought and registered and so exists in the Domain Naming System. Back comes the reply 216.37.46.27 and the browser then sends a request to that host. The host receives the request and sends back the response. If the response is a redirect you'll get the effect you want.
I assume you specified "client=455" because that is meaningful to the script executing at www.mysite.com. You therefore know that the request came originally from www.clientsite.com because you will set things up so www.clientsite.com is the only host that redirects to www.mysite.com?client=455. Some other client www.randomsite.com will forward to (for instance) www.mysite.com?client=123
Sounds like I didn't expain well the whole thing:
www.mysite.com and www.clientsite.com both point to my website (www.mysite.com)
Now, when any person type one or the other URL, then the result is my website.
What I want to achieve, is that when he types www.clientsite.com, then I redirect to the client=455.
So in my index.php, I'd like to know wich URL was typed (mysite.com or clientsite.com) and redirect if the URL is clientsite.com.
Sounds simple, and many website do it. I'd like to know how.
