All you really need to know is that $PATH_INFO will contain /1/2/3 simply pick out what you need using something like: list($arg1,$arg2,$arg3) = explode('/',$PATH_INFO); There is nothing to change configuration-wise in either PHP or Apache. What you can do is get a bit fancier and get rid of the .php from the URL and use: http://domain.com/blah/1/2/3 In your Apache config you would use: <Location "/blah"> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Location> And then you would simply name your PHP script 'blah' and stick it in your document root directory. But this is not needed if you are happy with: http://domain.com/blah.php/1/2/3 Here the .php extension tells Apache that blah.php is a PHP script that should be executed. -Rasmus
