Hi I'm running Apache and PHP4 on a localhost.

Now my problem is that I want PHP to get a hold of variables through the URL string - so that http://localhost/webiste/web/ is my directory for the website,
but when writing http://localhost/webiste/web/pagenumber/menuid/

then I want to access the last two "pagenumer" and "menuid" as $_GET[] VARS in my php script which is based at http://localhost/webiste/web/

I've seen this done at Randers Tegl - Randers Tegl er skandinaviens største tegl-leverandør, med tagsten og mursten til konkurrencedygtige priser. - but anyone knows where I could find info on this or find a tutorial?

I THINK its got something to do with the .htaccess file? - but is this called the same under apache?

Thanks in advance,

have a read through High Rankings® Search Engine Optimization Forum -> Redirects, 301s, 302, htaccess, mod_rewrite especially the pinned thread.

and .htaccess is only for Apache

You need this

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*)/(.*)/ ?$1=$2

make sure you save it as .htaccess as htaccess will not be read. Also make sure you put it into the dir of interest and not in your doc root otherwise your css files and any js may not work as planned.
