PHP - How To Create Permalink Seo Friendly

Can someone help me to generate SEO friendly URLs?

I dont want my URLs to be presented like:
www.example.com/listprod.php?categ=1&subcateg=7

I want it to dynamically do the following:
www.example.com/listprod/cameras/slr

hey guys,   i need a little help on the best way to generate a seo friendly token...at the moment i use password_hash() with a peice of users information to create a key so that the user can verifiy account by a url sent via email.   now the problem i'm having with that is it contains forward slashes which is killer for my uri and not to mention all the other seo friendly characters it conatins.   how do i make the hash url friendly?...any advise would be great   thank you

I don't usually post on "introduce yourself" type areas of forums. But I'm glad I found this place. It's nice to find a community not overrun by trolls and attitudes (ie, Stackoverflow). That's getting sadly rarer lately.   I've been writing/editing PHP for the past 8+ years now, but I still find things I've never done before. Hey, we can't know it all!   Before PHP, I mostly did ASP -- all the way back to my NT4 days.   I see a lot of hosting-related questions around here -- one of my areas of expertise -- so I think I'll stick around to help others.

Rather than me have all my pages as domain.com/index.php?id=1 etc I would like to pull the id's title from the database to create the URL so that they will look like domain.com/this-is-the-page-name/

Wordpress does it exactly how I want i just need a nudge in the right direction.

Anyone know how to do it or now of a guide to help me.

Thanks

Here's my search form:

    <form action="search" method="get" enctype="multipart/form-data">
      <input type="text" name="string" maxlength="100" /><br /><br />
      <input type="submit" value="Search" />
    </form>

When I submit it, the URL is search.php?string=Bleh

What I would like is for the URL to be search/string/Bleh

I'm already doing this with some other variables, like search/tag/Bleh and search/author/Bleh, instead of search.php?tag=Bleh and search.php?author=Bleh. However, those ones are passed via a link, not a form.

Any ideas?

Here is what I am trying to do.   Get from this http://mysite.com/po...&title=postname   to this http://mysite.com/post/12/postname/     here’s the rewrite rule.

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^post/([a-zA-Z]+)/([0-9]+)/$ post.php?id=$1&title=$2

This is my html link that links to the post.php page.

<a href="post.php?id=12&amp;title=postname">
	Click here to see the post!
</a> 

It does not change the url.      I have also tried it like below and it gives me an internal error.

<a href="post/12/postname">
	Click here to see the post!
</a> 

Can you see what I have done wrong?  Also if the above method for the linking is correct, how do I get the "id" and "title" using the $_GET?    

Can anyone please help me with my code.
I would like to display the data from another column instead of the id in the url generated by the scirpt.

Code: [Select]
<?php
include('/home/arts/public_html/shows/includes/config.db.php');
if ($link){
$rpp = 10; // results per page
$adjacents = 4;
$page = intval($_GET["page"]);
if(!$page) $page = 1;

$reload = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

$sql = "select * from craft_shows WHERE venue_state='MD' order by start_date ";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

// count total number of appropriate listings:
$tcount = mysql_num_rows($result);
    $date = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row['start_date']));

echo "<table class='table7' width='100%' cellpadding='5' cellspacing='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td>Date</td><td>City</td><td>Show Name</td><td>Attendance</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td colspan='7'><hr></td></tr>";

// count number of pages:
$tpages = ($tcount) ? ceil($tcount/$rpp) : 1; // total pages, last page number
$date = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row['start_date']));
$count = 0;
$i = ($page-1)*$rpp;
while(($count<$rpp) && ($i<$tcount)) {
mysql_data_seek($result,$i);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

     $id = $row['id'];
echo "<tr><td>";
    echo "<a href=\"/show_submits/show_detail.php?id=$id\">Details</a>";
echo "</td><td>";
echo strftime('%b %d, %Y', strtotime($row['start_date']));
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['venue_city'];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['show_name'];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['num_visitors'];
echo "</td></tr>";
$i++;
$count++;
}
echo "</table>";
echo "<br>";
// call pagination function:
include("pagination1.php");
echo paginate_one($reload, $page, $tpages, $adjacents);
}
?>

Hey everyone,

I am attempting to find the best method to dynamically create seo friendly urls. This is my plan:

Original url:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1
Make slug from the page's title and add it to url:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1&/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug
Finally remove "index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1&/" from the url using .htaccess:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug
My questions a
Is there a better strategy/technique for accomplishing this? I have done a lot of research and this seems to be the most popular method.

Also since I couldn't do directly put a forward slash right after "&id=1", like so "&id=1/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug",
I went ahead and added a "&" right after the id number, like so "&id=1&/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug".
Is this the correct way of doing this?

Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you!

I'm currently runing an classifieds ads site, Php + Mysql (no frameworks) Basically i have the ads listing page (ads.php) and the ads details page (ad_detail.php) This is my current .htaccess:

# disable directory browsing
Options All -Indexes

ErrorDocument 400 /error.php
ErrorDocument 401 /error.php
ErrorDocument 403 /error.php
ErrorDocument 404 /error.php
ErrorDocument 500 /error.php
ErrorDocument 502 /error.php
ErrorDocument 504 /error.php

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^(.*)-da([0-9]+)$ ad_detail.php?ad=$2
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

The final result is something like this: www.mysite.com/this-is-the-ad-detail-da50555 (the number is the ad id)   What i need is to get this: www.mysite.com/ads/another-ad-detail-da50777 + What can i do in others urls to show like www.mysite.com/about/ instead of www.mysite.com/about (without the /)     I already tried this but doesn't work:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule -da([0-9]+)/?$ ad_detail.php?ad=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1\.php -f [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]

Hello everyone, I am working on a form that is similar to a shopping cart system and I am thinking of creating a button that submits the checked value and saves them to a $_SESSION variable. And also a link that links to a cart.html that takes the values of a $_SESSION variable. I am have trouble figuring what tag/attribute should I use in order to achieve that.   Right now my code attached below submits the checked values to cart.html directly. However I want my submit button to save the checked box to a $_SESSION variable and STAY on the same page. And then I will implement a <a> to link to the cart.php.   I researched a little bit about this subject and I know it's somewhat related to ajax/jquery. I just wanted to know more about it from you guys. I appreciate your attention for reading the post and Thanks!   Below is the form that I currently have:

<form name= "finalForm" method="POST" action="cart.php">
<input type="Submit" name="finalSelected"/>

<?php foreach($FinalName as $key => $item) {?>
<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="fSelected[]" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($FinalID[$key])?>" />
<?php echo "$FinalID[$key] & $item";?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php } ;?>

Below is the code for cart.php

<?php
require ('connect_db.php');
if(isset($_POST['finalSelected']))
{
	if(!empty($_POST['fSelected']))
	{
		$chosen = $_POST['fSelected'];
		foreach ($chosen as $item)
			echo "aID selected: $item </br>";
		$delimit = implode(", ", $chosen);
		print_r($delimit);
	}

}
if(isset($delimit))
{
$cartSQL = "SELECT * from article where aID in ($delimit)";
$cartQuery = mysqli_query($dbc, $cartSQL) or die (mysqli_error($dbc));
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($cartQuery, MYSQLI_BOTH))
{
	$aTitle[] = $row[ 'name' ];
}
}
?>

<table>
	
		<?php if(isset($delimit)) { 
		$c=0; foreach($aTitle as $item) {?>
		<tr>
		<td>
			<?php echo $aTitle[$c]; $c++;?>
		</td>
		</tr>
		<?php }}?>
</table>

Hi all,

I am looking a developing a script that instead of using something like mysite.com/showproduct.php?id=1 I would like it to appear as mysite.com/php-editor

Is their a simple way of doing this? I would still need to pull info from a database so the page would still need to be dynamic, I just want it to appear static!

I am used to using the get id function of php, what would the workaround be? would the id be hidden from the url but still usable in a query?

I have had a look at the apache mod_rewrite, but quite frankly, I dont understand it!

Cheers

Hii i want to create an api of the short url site ( http://torrentz.0fees.net ). In the api page it is says that Code: [Select]
API  Our API allows you to provide short url functionality to any of your existing websites.

Url Only
To generate a url via the API, send a POST or GET request to the site in the following format:

- http://torrentz.0fees.net/index.php?api=1&return_url_text=1&longUrl={URL}

This site will then generate the short url and return it as plain text. i.e:

- http://torrentz.0fees.net/a1
I have created an form but not able to use it. The form script is shown below.

Code: [Select]
<form name="input" action="html_form_action.asp" method="get">
 Username: <input type="text" name="user" />
 <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
 </form>
Whenever i'm putting the ( http://torrentz.0fees.net/index.php?api=1&return_url_text=1&longUrl={URL} )
it shows an error.

I know that the input url must be used in the ( {URL} ) section but how can i do that using php

Can anyone help me with code...

HOw to create this header?     I give +. thx http://i.snag.gy/15Ep4.jpg
