Hi From my pagination.php page my pages are produced as follows: print "<a href=new.php?id=\"$row->id\">$row->title amp; lt;/A>"; But once licked, in the address bar i get my new.php pages opening as: http://mpc/new.php?id="98" http://mpc/new.php?id="99" etc... new.php accepts parameter as follows: <?php include("db/db_config.php"); if(isset($_GET["id"])) { $id = $_GET["id"]; $sql = "SELECT * FROM articles WHERE id = $id"; } $_GET["id"] LIMIT 1"; $rs = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()); etc............. How do i make my page url's appearing in address bar: http://mpc/new.php?id="98" http://mpc/new.php?id="99" as .html names? I mean i have literally 3-4 thousand, can i do this using a software? so search engines will index all my links? I found no free version of : IIS Mod-Rewrite Pro, even tried searching torents, my server = iis, on localhost Kind Regards Thanks in advance Tovia S

Okie ... For IIS you need an ISAPI module to enable URL Rewriting. More Details http://www.isapirewrite.com/ http://www.micronovae.com/ModRewrite/ModRewrite.html After that you could use any online URL Rewriting/.htaccess generator tools to generate .htaccess and sample URL's.. Example below http://www.linkvendor.com/seo-tools/url-rewrite.html http://www.pcaccessoriesparts.com/tools/free-online-mod-rewrite-tool/ http://www.webmaster-toolkit.com/mod_rewrite-rewriterule-generator.shtml Then just replace the .htaccess file or add the rules to the one you have and change the links voillah. Have fun!

First off, why do you want the .php extension changed to .html? There's really no reason to do that, and, as far as I know, you can't. I don't really understand your question, I guess.
