permaLink

[suzie]

Dear , In our website to go from page to page or to open an article we use the following Permalink:

http://www.xxx.com/content.php?priority=2&table=alam&type=alam&day=Fri

is there a way to change the format of this link to:
for ex:

http://www.xxx.com/content.php?priority=2/table=alam/type=alam/day=Fri

or

http://www.xxx.com/content.php?2/alam/alam/Fri

or any other format, but my goal is to get rid from th "&"
because if i want to tweet the article, twitter does not read the "&", the link will be cutted off..

any Suggestion please to have a good and secure permalink,

thanks a lot

Hi suzie,
What you need to do is turn all your links into search engine friendly URLs. So when you do that your URL will be look like this,

http://www.xxx.com/content.php/2/alam/alam/Fri

But remember by doing this you have to change the way how you access the GET variables inside your code.

Here is an good article about it to get you started.

Thanks,
best regards,

Thanks a lot a lot, very helpful that what I need,
now my link look like:

http://www.xxx.com/content.php/2/alam/alam/Fri

one more question, is there a way to hide the

($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])

from the URL, so in the URL we see only

http://www.xxx.com/content.php

Best Regards,

thank you

Well not that i know of. the problem is if you hide those GET variables how do you supposed to manipulate data inside your code?

Not sure what the problem is, but you might also want to look into the mod_rewrite module for apache or something similar for your own web server. Try Googling for some tutorials on how to set it up and use it.
