Have you tried doing some like:

 

Example: article.php:

 

The withdrawl of the code bellow is that you would have to in some way be able to show your current database rows that hold the information such as the title that will be used as a link. - By this I mean you would have to have a page where news rows where added when new news is created - Easily done but that is your choice.

 

 

<?

$title = $_GET[article];

includes("config-file-directory.php");

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM newscatagory WHERE title = '$title' LIMIT 1 order by id DESC") or die(mysql_error());

$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);

 

if($title =='$row[title]'){ ?>

 

<? echo"$row[title]"; ?><br>

<? echo"$row[article]"; ?><br>

<? echo"$row[reporter]"; ?><br>

<!-- examples of table row/column names --!>

<? } ?>

 

So if the database had a row that had an article with the title:

 

and I went and typed the following link:

http://www.somesite.com/article.php?article=peter_pan_becomes_a_man

 

Then it would distribute the example rows Title, Article and reporter for the row with the identical title in the database to that in the URL

 

As for MOD_Rewrite (Not huge expert on but)

 

.htaccess

 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

  RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^articles/(.*)$ article.php?article=$1

</IfModule>

 

Something along those lines not set in stone although I hope it helped
