Query strings

[GeorgeMoney]

how do you make it so the first slash after the php file is equeal to a parameter?

For example how would you make #1 equal to #2:

1: http://example.com/example.php?param=value

2: http://example.com/example.php/value

so the / is equal to ?param= . Would this require changing a configuration file on the server?
