What you're looking for is generally called SES or search engine safe/friendly URLs.
The incoming SES URL has to have something that can be used to look up the "real" URL behind the scenes. So if you wanted to use "ipod_touch_32_gb", then that would have to be the product name. You could also add the item number and use that. http://www.domain.com/ipod_touch_32_gb Becomes http://www.domain.com/ipod_touch_32_gb/123456789 There was a discussion on this just the other day in fact. http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/thread.cfm/threadid:61959 -----Original Message----- From: Donnie Carvajal [mailto:donnie.carva...@transformyx.com] Sent: Friday, October 01, 2010 10:44 AM To: cf-talk Subject: Fake URLS I am trying to make my e-Commerce item links for efficient. For example, I would like the link for an IPod Tocuh 32 GB to be http://www.domain.com/ipod_touch_32_gb instead of http://www.domain.com/store.cfm?i=123456&s=789456&p=654321. You get the point. I'm assuming that the url http://www.domain.com/ipod_touch_32_gb will throw some kind of 404 error and I will need to change the web server custom error for this 404 error to run some kind of script. Has anyone implemented URLs like this before? If so, how? Are there any scripts out there that I can use?
