[vksrinu]

Hi

I want to display the product name in the URL, with out giving the product id and the file extension like below

I want like this : www.mysite.com/category/productname instead of www.mysite.com/category/display.cfm?pid=123&catid=345

I dont want to give the ext and whole query string, becuase my clients getting confuion with this query string.
does any one have any idea on this?
can any one explain how to do this.

Take a look at: http://www.isapirewrite.com/ the isapi filter. I believe cold fusion server has an inbuilt one. I am using it to change /profile.cfm?dir=myprofile to /myprofile where my profile is a unique identifier. I would guess you could easily do this:

www.mysite.com/category/display.cfm?pid=123&catid=345&name=productname

www.mysite.com/category/productname
