This should be a simple thing to do, but I just can't see it. I have a database, with, say, articles, with ID, title, and text. I just want to make the URLs of the pages become sitename.com/title instead of the more usual sitename.com/article.php?id=(ID from database).
However, I don't want to manually add a line to htaccess for each page / database entry, and I am nervous about making programatic changes to htaccess (not even sure it it's possible) because of the damage that it can do to the entire site. What I have done before, is to give the page a tail, like .info, then get htaccess to rewrite the URL to /article.php?title=(title from database). The tail allows htaccess to recognise that this is an article. But is there a way to do this, just using /title as the url? -- Pete Clark Advertise your events - local and free http://hotcosta.com/events.php
