.htaccess and PHP for SEO SEF URL.... can someone give me a starting point?

[psquillace]

Hello All:

 

I have started to make my .htaccess file so that my CMS will dynamically change the URL from one that is like this www.mydomain.com/info_page.php?page_id=$1&product=$2 to one that has a specific product on the end, like www.mydomain.com/oinons/bagels/coffee.

 

The problem I am realizing was that I thought that I could just do this with just the .htaccess but now I am starting to see that you would need a php file or script to tell it what to change too.

 

This is where I need the help because I am kind of new to php and would not even know where to begin with something like that.

 

Can someone point me in the right direction or something so I can get this show on the road.

 

Thanks,

 

Paul

Which CMS is it, because if it's Joomla 1.5x it's built in.

 

Even Joomla 1.0x has plugins to accomplish this.

It is a custom built CMS that needs an SEO SEF Solution implemented.
