I'm not sure you could do *any* URL rewriting without at least a bare minimum of mod_rewrite.

Would that still send error numbers in the header though? If so, wouldn't our googlebots and other spider friends be confused?

Ah, good catch, Velda! I forgot to mention how you take care of that. PHP can change what HTTP response code Apache sends back like this:

header("HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n");

Or for a redirect:

header("HTTP/1.0 $status Moved Forever");

where status is 301, or in the case of stupid browsers that won't display an HTML page when the status is 301, you may want to leave it a 404. But for google and such, 301 does exactly what you'd hope for on a redirect.

Thanks,
Mac
