Where can I learn about address details my php books don't seem to cover?

Here are two example:

No. 1
ww.mysite.com/file.php?&mg=this&cn=that

&mg=this   &cn=that  I have successfully experimented with this and kind of understand its usefulness.

No. 2
Hiding file names. I assume I would change some of my php file names to index.php and put each php file inside its own folder with a unique folder name so the php file names don't show in the address bar. I have not tried this yet.

I see some complex sites that have these real long addresses. I have figured out how some of this complexity works, like my first example above. But I wonder if there is more to learn.

Can someone recommend an internet tutorial or book that specifically covers this subject of complex addresses or headers if that's what it's called? Thanks.

I think you're trying to get understand on Query Strings. ... Query Strings are very important if you want to pass the variable values to another page without form...

No 1: ref. Query String Use

No 2: You can make readable URL's using SEO friendly URL's creating.
ref. URL Rewriting
