The last that I heard was that some do, some don't.

Go to Google, and search on "ebags." The second item is a link with a
question mark (this is a fusebox site). I think that's proof that
*some do.*

I've heard of some people hacking their Web server (Apache) to
understand slashes as a replacement to the query string, thus
imitating directory structure. So instead of
mydomain.com/index.cfm?key1=val1&key2=val2, you have *something* like
mydomain.com/key1/val1/key2/val2

I'm certain I have the syntax messed up, but you get the point...
dynamic links that look like regular directories.

I could have this all wrong, but someone wil correct me.
