herghost Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi all, I am looking a developing a script that instead of using something like mysite.com/showproduct.php?id=1 I would like it to appear as mysite.com/php-editor Is their a simple way of doing this? I would still need to pull info from a database so the page would still need to be dynamic, I just want it to appear static! I am used to using the get id function of php, what would the workaround be? would the id be hidden from the url but still usable in a query? I have had a look at the apache mod_rewrite, but quite frankly, I dont understand it!

rwwd Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 .htaccess -> mod rewrite, this is the engine that makes 'friendly urls' and it is an apache module that needs to be enabled, this will then covert the requested a href value into the page request that you asked for. Google "mod rewrite", I'm sure there is a forum on apache somewhere on here Rw Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/214127-seo-friendly-urls-static-urls/#findComment-1114267 Share on other sites More sharing options...
