Essentially what I would like to do is modify the uri with something like

$_Server['REQUEST_URI'] = '/MyPage/';

(as an example)

and it update the browsers uri but not effect anything else. (ofcourse if
they uset that uri I will need to make sure it maps to something)

I know I can use rewrite rules and I'm trying to I am having more problems
with them than it should be and I can handle it a lot easier in php(And
atleast debug it so I know why things are failing).
