hpaccess中的php头url重定向

Question

I’m confused about apache RewriteRule in htaccess. I have hundreds of header('Location: script_name.php'); in my webapp and would like to make url’s more user friendly (not SEO friendly as search engines won’t be allowed to crawl the app). Here's a typical piece of code :

if(isset($_POST['get_product']))
{
    // PHP/PDO code here
    header('Location: product_catalog_detail.php?with or without query strings');
} 

that gives :

http://localhost/smart_entreprise/folder1/folder2/product_catalog_detail?catID=1&productID=1

Now I'd like to keep this URL server-side and show the user this for all script names beginning with product_catalog :

http://localhost/smart_entreprise/folder1/folder2/catalog

or even better :

http://localhost/smart_entreprise/catalog

Doest it makes sense ? Thanks.

#/webroot/.htaccess
