I think i am finally getting what I am looking for. But still it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

<?php
function processURI() {
global $REQUEST_URI; // Define our global variables
//

$array = explode("/",$REQUEST_URI);		

$num = count($array);				

$url_array = array();				

for ($i = 1 ; $i < $num ; $i++) {		
	$url_array["arg".$i] = $array[$i];	
}						

return $url_array;				

}

?>

<?php

$myarray = processURI();
?>

<a href="/articles.php/627">Article 627</a>
<a href="/articles.php/628">Article 628</a>

---

when i am doing it than i will get my articles.php but it says that the articleId is invalid.

This is how the link looked before

http://www.paris-marketplace.com/articles.php?articleId=627

Thank you in advance

You may want to use modRewrites if you are running apache by editing the htaccess file. That will parse the URL string for you. It worked for me. If you want more details let me know.

Does this function help?
