how do i make an end of the url that looks this way:somedomain.com/dir/?variable=value
instead of:
somedomain.com/dir/page.php?variable=value
does this have to do anything with index.php ??
thanks

Yes. There are no webpages on my site where the "~.php" is visable in the URL. As long as your server is configured to load the "index.php" file when no file is specified in the URL this should work.

yes but you cant have any other index files that comes before it in loading for the default file (ie. index.htm..index.html..etc etc) so u'd have to ask your host if its possible to set index.php as the default file on your server.

Yes, edit some Apache config file, or it can even be done with .htaccess files. So a few searches on Google.

That should explain it.
