Directories (pretty urls)

[eleven0]

So lets say i got a web page called "nice.php", which looks like this in browser "mysite.com/nice.php",

 

What do i need to do have it like this "mysite.com/nice" besides going to FTP and creating  a directory called "nice" and renaming that php file to "index.php"?

 

Is there another way of doing? Not sure how much this is related to php.

You'd use htaccess for this.

That didn't work, but someone replied with correct code on that site. I got it working thanx.

 

Would this be possible?

 

from

view.php?id=4

 

to

view?id=4

yeh

 

you can even make ?id=4

how?

i dont know what your asking but here is a code im using, it doesnt need htacess

<?php $page = $_GET["page"];
if (!$page) {
include "/home.php";
}

else if($page=="home")       { include "/home.php"; }

else if($page=="contact")     { include "/contact.php"; }

else { echo "<b><h1>404 Error</h1></b>"; } 
?>

 

then

<a href="/index.php?page=home">

<a href="/index?page=home">

<a href="/?page=home">

 

will be the same

yea i know, i pretty much the have the same thing,

 

when i use

 

<a href="/?page=home">

 

I still see "index.php" just right before it. It somehow puts it there.
