DaniWeb's Interesting URL System

Expand Post »
Hello,
I was browsing DaniWeb and found a code snippet that allows PHP files to be static and more search-able by browsers. I notice that certain pages of DaniWeb are PHP (such as this new thread page), yet most are html files. I know this may seem nosy, but I am interested in how this is possible with dynamic content such as a form. How is it done?
Thanks!!

Re: DaniWeb's Interesting URL System

It's called mod_rewrite, which is an Apache module. It allows you to rewrite the requested urls.

You should read more about it here
