I was wondering what is the best way of learning how to get human readable urls on my sites.
My understanding of a human readable URL is this
www.example.com/news/articles/how-to-make-pancakes
rather than something like this
www.example.com/news.php?articleId=100001
where 100001 is the id of my articel in an SQL Database.
Any help would be much appreciated.
UPDATE:
I have tried to Google Human Readable URL's and Semantic URLs but could not find a page/tutorial that matched what I was looking for. I
Look into URL rewriting http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html
For your example a simple .htaccess rule could make that change
sample URL: http://example.com/articles/10001/how-to-make-pancakes
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^articles/(.*)/(.*)$ articles.php?id=$1&title=$2 [NC]

I currently have the page '/tags.php?id=foo', and want it to display in the browser as '/tags/foo'. How might I do this with the .htaccess file?
EDIT
I've tried the solution given below and read up a little bit on Regex, but it's still not quite working how I need it to - is it possible once using the .htaccess mod_rewrite to still derive the $_GET data from the URL to use in code?
Put this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^tags/([^/]+)/?$ /tags.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

I would like to replace my links appeared in my page's adressbar.
Now the links have this format: http://mypage.com/index.php?page=contact
And I want this format: mypage.com/contact
How to do that?
(No links please, I need example.)
Update:
This is one possible solution that worked:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)?$ index2.php?page=$1 [L]
Take a look at htaccess and mod_rewrite.
You asked for no links, so I'll let you Google them yourself.
Once you have a chosen path, try it out and if you can't get it working come back with examples of what you've tried and in what way they didn't work.

I shifted to CodeIgntier from OOP php and there are lot of links which are not working, for example this old link
http://www.flowersentiments.com/Occassional-Special/29/Birthday/122/
should actually be redirected to
http://www.flowersentiments.com/products/Occassional/29/Birthday-Gifts/122/
I have tried all methods to redirect it using .htaccess. but It just doesn't work.
Please help
In the htaccess file in your document root, you need to add your redirect rules before any of the other rules that yo uhave there for CodeIgniter:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^Occassional-Special/([0-9]+)/Birthday/([0-9]+)/$ /products/Occassional/$1/Birthday-Gifts/$2/ [L,R=301]
You'll need to do the same thing (or something similar) for all of your other broken links.

I have a page "page.php" on my site "www.mysite.com". "page.php" is a profile page for users on my website. Users profile can be accessed like this: "http://www.mysite.com/page.php?user=rehan". Using htaccess, I would like to rewrite the link to: "http://www.mysite.com/rehan". How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance,
Rehan.
You can try this
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([^//]+)$ page.php?user=$1 [QSA,L]
for that you have to use :
`
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^//]+)$ page.php?user=$1 [QSA,L]`
but on some servers you have to add :
RewriteBase /
