Yup, you should be able to set it up in your .htaccess file, like so: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^article/(.*) /article.php?id=$1 I personally just starting using mod_rewrite after reading about it in this article: http://www.alistapart.com/stories/urls/index.html There is a performance hit for using .htaccess (the server has to read the file for every hit), but it's an ok option if your host can't/won't put your rewrite rules in httpd.conf. -- Bill Stilwell bill@marginalia.org It's all margins.
