SEO friendly urls
I have a custom built PHP/MYSQL based CMS
Using .htaccess I can create short urls
ie
www.mysite.com/index.php?p=page&id=2 is converted to www.mysite.com/page/2
I want the url to read www.mysite.com/page/article_name.html
where article_name is a the title of the article stored in the database.
Joomla has a plugin to do this.
thanks
Michael

I have applied your solution
I had blinkers on and was presuming I had to work with the page number (which is based on it's record number)
Rather easy once someone points the way
thanks
