How to make SEO friendly URL structure using PHP?

[rahulephp]

Hi,

 

I need to send product id with URL something like this:

http://www.example.com/product.php?id=292&name=sony-digital-camera

 

But this URL is not good enough for seo.

Can anyone please let me know how to pass the ids and name (without "product.php") so that I will extract the id later

http://www.example.com/sony-digital-camera-292.php

 

All the operation takes place at "product.php" so I can't ignore it.

But I don't want "product.php" page to be shown in URL.

 

After rendering "product.php" page with respective product id, I'll get all of the parameters like name, price, description etc.

Then now the URL of page would have to be (like this)

http://www.example.com/sony-digital-camera-292.php

(without "product.php")

 

Thank you in anticipation

This is done with Apache's mod_rewrite, not in PHP. Moving to appropriate section.

The rewrite rule would be something like this...

 

RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-]+)-([0-9]+)\.php$ /product.php?id=$2&name=$1
