You can use [url=http://www.isapirewrite.com/]this[/url]. It was the only rewriter I could get working for IIS. I don't think you can do that sort of rewriting from PHP (but I could be wrong).

i download exe file it is asking for (where should to keep the files) how to follow the step please tell me


if i execute it in my localhost then i want to upload this files to my server there how to do this

[SpeedBird]

If I remember correctly, the .exe is just a self extractor. You should have two files which need to be kept in the same location (i.e. c:\windows\rewrite); a .dll file and a .ini file. The .dll is an ISAPI filter and needs to be loaded by IIS, the .ini is a configuration file and it is where you will create your rewrite rules using PCRE syntax.

PCRE can be quite difficult to get used to, but a good cheat sheet can be found [url=http://www.phpguru.org/downloads/PCRE%20Cheat%20Sheet/PHP%20PCRE%20Cheat%20Sheet.pdf]here[/url].
