You show the command to the user anyway, you just don't show the variable names. Let's say that you are worried that the user will change id.

From: index.php?id=10
To: index.php?id=11

With the other way of doing it they just need to do like this.

From: index.php/10
To: index.php/11

I suggest that you don't worry about this if you are only worried about the user changing the values.

I don't have it, I just know that it is something that you change in Apache. Search the boards, there are lots of threads about this.

But judging by your previous post I suggest that you become familiar with PHP and databases first and then worry about these kind of things.

I setup server by IIS . So i want like Apache server do it !

Ok, let me be as clear as I can be:

RTFM to be able to know how to do it.

But don't bother, it is more important to RTFM in mysql and learn simple SQL first. You try to change the small things when you haven't grasped the big picture.

FIRST learn PHP and SQL.
THEN worry about these kind of things.
If you try to do it all at once it will be to much and you will give up.
