Hi,
Throughout the past few years, I've been working on a personal blog
that I've written using PHP. I recently noticed that a lot of blogs
support the following URL syntax:
/archives/2004/04/03/
/archives/2004/03/
/archives/2004/
and so on and so forth. The thing is, they obviously don't have an
actual HTML or PHP page in that directory; I doubt even that those
directories actually exist. My guess is that they are doing some sort of
URL re-writing using .htaccess in combination with perhaps a single PHP
page that takes in parameters as a GET query. It's just a guess, of
course.
The thing is: I really have no idea how they are doing this.
So, how would I implement something like this on my site using Apache
and PHP? What is the technical term for this style of 'URL re-writing'
even called? I don't mind doing a little research on my own, but I can't
seem to nail down exactly what keywords I need to search for in the
first place!
Any pointers or examples would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
