Hello!
What would you consider to be better:
[1] www.domain.com/index.php/something
or
[2] www.domain.com/something.com
or
[2] www.domain.com/index.php?page=something
I know that the best would be www.domain.com/something, but there is no
mod_rewrite option enabled..
Thank you!

Leave it up to the browser to decide what the cursor
