Hi there.
A current website client requires a change in the way urls for their
distributors are displayed. each distributor has its own page of data.
A web user will search for an individual distributor via a number of paths
which results in page for that distributor, but all the distributor data
(there are about 80 or so) is dynamically populated from the database with a
url like
http://www.xxxxxxx.com.au/view_distributor.php?id=14&ajwilson
What the client wants is something like...
http://www.xxxxxxx.com.au/distributors/ajwilson.php
So in summary they don't want a long php string like
"view_distributor.php?id=14&ajwilson"
They want a simple ajwilson.php which looks nice and simple, and they want
to use the url string to easily promote each of their distributors etc.
Anyway I hope that makes sense. If someone has an idea on a simple solution,
ideally without reinventing the backend, it would help immensely.
Sorry for using a dummy url... I don't want my client to be able to search
on my question...
Cheers
Justin
