No, it sounds like you're attempting to do what is already being done.
As Krist said, any of those urls you specified will cause Apache to
invoke PHP for topic-guide.php, passing the URL specified section
value in the $_GET super global.

To illustrate this, just create a file on your server, say test.php,
with these 6 lines:

<?php
if(isset($_GET["section"]))
    echo "This is test.php, but the browser requested section " .
$_GET["section"];
else
    echo "This is test.php. The browser did not request a specific section.";
?>

No browse to that page like:
http://www.mydomain.com/test.php
http://www.mydomain.com/test.php?section=1
http://www.mydomain.com/test.php?section=2
http://www.mydomain.com/test.php?section=3

Is that what you're looking for, or did I miss the point?
