How to make readable URLs?

Question

Suppose I have a url http://example.com/user/me , where me is the username. When the user enters the URL into the address bar, I want to show the details of the user. I don't want urls like http://example.com/user.php?user=me

Any help appreciated while working on LAMP

Answer 1

One way to do this is to use an apache module called mod_rewrite. You can then rewrite the URLs to /user/([a-z]+)to point to/user.php?user=$1

Find documentation mod_rewritefor details.
