Hi there:
I've noticed a lot of web sites using this technique. I know this
stuff always changes, but one potential caveat: the last I knew,
search engines were either ignoring or ranking down anything after
the xxxx.php in the URL when people use this structure.
Meaning, essentially,
http://www.something.com/script.php/some/other/thing
is not as good as
http://www.something.com/script/some/other/thing
from Google's point of view.
So, easier, yes, but it might give you some unwanted side effects.
Again, this information might have changed, or even might have been
wrong in the first place, but since mod_rewrite is so dead simple to
use, IMO it's not worth the risk.
Maybe someone else can either clarify or refute my claim.
Cheers,
Marc

There's an easy way to get 'friendly' URLs in PHP. There are two
tricks involved:
(1) It seems to be a bit obscure that if you have a PHP script at
http://somewhere.com/myscript.php
the same script is called if you visit
http://somewhere.com/myscript.php/some/subdirectories.gif
http://somewhere.com/myscript.php/article/2007/07/07/hello-world
Try it! You can make your script display something different based
on the path
you enter by checking the superglobal $_SERVER["PATH_INFO"]. From
simple
if-then-else ladders to advanced frameworks, you can take it from
there as you wish.
(2) You can remove the ".php" from your scripts by putting the
following in your
.htaccess or apache configuration:
DefaultType application/x-httpd-php
Now if you have a script without an extension (say, "myscript")
you can write
http://somewhere.com/myscript/some/subdirectories.gif
http://somewhere.com/myscript/article/2007/07/07/hello-world
