Please help me

I have found a great rewrite generator which was working perfectly and I made some nice rules for my URLS, however, I wanted to take away the value ID's as they looked ugly in the URL string, but it has broken the mod_rewrite.

 

Can anyone tell me how to remove ID's or things that do not remain constant from showing but still make the rewrite work?

 

Thanks!

 

Example Code Below:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)\.html$ /index.php?page=$1&music_id=28&musical_name=$2 [L]

 

These are the URLS I have and what I would like them changed to:

 

index.php > index.html

 

index.php?page=musicals  >  musicals.html

 

index.php?page=musicals&musical_id=2&musical_name=chicago  >  musicals/chicago.html

 

index.php?page=musicals&musical_id=2&musical_name=chicago&lyrics_id=3&song_title=the_song  >  musicals/chicago/the_song.html
