Friendly URLs

[dylan-k]

I'm looking for a way to customize the URL syntax.

I have an entry, lets say it is a document about Coffee, and the title is "Decaf Please".
The unique ID for this entry is "4" so the current URL is example.com/directory/index.cfm?id=4
but I want the URL to be like this instead: example.com/coffee/decaf-please/

I should note that "coffee" and "decaf-please" can be pulled out of the database, just as the ID can.

(I understand that I must settle for a URL like example.com/coffee/decaf-please.cfm -- because of IIS
I really DONT want to settle for a URL like http://example.com/index.cfm/coffee/decaf-please
... or anything else that puts a filename in the middle of the URL)

any ideas?

You need to install ISAPI rewrite and then you can do what you want with some simple regex.

Did ISAPI work for you? I'm trying to do the same thing, however, my site is hosted on a remote host.
