This is the first time i'm doing this and have been
doing some research on it.
I have a page that selects some info from a database
and displays it with a link to a second page that uses
the result to query the database, something like this:
$sel=mysql_query("select id, title from thetable ");
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($sel))
{
$id=$row['id'];
$title=$row['title'];
echo "<a href='more.php?id=$id'>$title</a>";
}
The issue is, in the more.php page, instead of more.php?id=5 to show in
the address bar, I want something like more/title
Secondly, as it obtains in most sites, I want the link on the referring page
to show this friendly url on mouse hover not the more.php?id=5
And I notice in most sites some words like 'a', 'and', 'the' etc are usually
removed from the url title(even if there originally), moreover how does one
handle the situation where more than one record have the same title.
How does one go about achieving this url rewrite with htaccess or whatever
method is used.
Thanks.
