I think what you're looking for is URL rewriting. PHP by itself can't do
that, you need to do it at the server level, so an .htaccess file would
be along the right lines.

Ash is right; however you can leverage off of the "index page" So your script
would be in "index.php" and the url would be:
http://server.domain.com/some_optional_directory_path/?variable

You can add this to apache conf:
<FilesMatch "^phpscript$">
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
Then make a file called phpscript without extension and drop it in the
web root.
<?php
$info = explode('/', $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']);
Then your url would look like:
http://server.domain.com/phpscript/variable1/variable2

As this method requires an Apache restart, I don't see what advantage
you have over using an .htaccess file?

Performance:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/htaccess.html
"You should avoid using .htaccess files completely if you have access
to httpd main server config file. Using .htaccess files slows down
your Apache http server. Any directive that you can include in a
.htaccess file is better set in a Directory block, as it will have the
same effect with better performance."
"...putting this configuration in your server configuration file will
result in less of a performance hit, as the configuration is loaded
once when httpd starts, rather than every time a file is requested."

Meh, I don't call that looking stupid. I call it a different way
of skinning the cat. :) We're all here to learn from one another, right?
Thanks for the suggestion.

Do a netstat -ab and see what ip/ports apache is listening on.

I am running Windows 2008 R2, IIS 7
I am running into an issue where no matter what I set the script time out
to be the server is
Giving me a 500 error after like 60 seconds when the process exceeds the
configured activity timeout.
Here is the example script
<?
set_time_limit(120);
sleep(100);
Echo "PASSED THE TIME OUT";
?>
I fully understand this may not be a PHP error but if anyone has ran into
this issue with a windows server and
can explain in detail how I can adjust the timeout, I would be very
grateful.
Everything I have read online points to a fcgiext.ini file that does not
exist on my server.
Anyone know how to help ?

Didn't use windows server in about 10 years (Go linux ;)), but did you try this?

I had to get Microsoft on the phone to resolve this issue with IIS and FAST-CGI
seems you can adjust the
Request Timeout and Activity Timeout within the IIS manager and for some reason
no documentation leads you to this point.
Sorry to bother issue resolved.
