将字符串附加到url以打开不同的页面

Question

To open profile page,the link is localhost/prof.php?id=123.Now on opening this page,when I click on About(a text on profile page), I want the link to be localhost/prof.php?id=123/about to open the about page.How should I do that?

Answer 1

This cannot be achieved directly through PHP, and certainly not with HTML. It is usually achieved through configuration of the webserver, and since Apache is the most common webserver for PHP, you are probably looking for mod_rewrite.

I suggest you look for a guide on URL rewriting with mod_rewrite.

I also suggest that you go with something like localhost/profile/123/about to improve readability if you are going to rewrite the URL anyway, no need to keep the .php?id= in there.
