I know nothing about php, but I am getting a quick lesson.
I have been adviced to pass variable, or at least their values like
this
http://www.domain.com/webpage.php?variable1=Tom?variable2=28
It works well enoguh for my purposes, but the only problem with this
is that I need some pages to be indexed by Google, and Google warns
against using the ?.
I have read somewhere else that I can take my refering url above and
change it to
http://www.domain.com/webpage/Tom/28
Unfrtunately the article I read did not say how to get the values of
"Tom" and "28" out of the refering url.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks
Best regards,
Al

Or Google for mod rewrite tutorials - (it can be quite complex though,
and may be overkill for what you need)

OK - but be aware that Google indexes many pages like that. For example: http://tinyurl.com/cjuda snip |
Thanks for your post.
Interesting that Google shows sites with the ?. In fact I did another
different Google search on "mortgages Florida", and I found the 11th
entry used the ?.
What gives with Google? Their site clearly says not to use the ?.
Doesn't look like it hurt the sites in my mortgage search.
Again thanks for your post.
