    The links should not be static or written by you to a file :) They should be driven from the database.

    I suggest you to create product links dynamic. So you create the navigation menu of products area as getting the product name and product id from the database.

    if you want nice looking urls, for example you can do this;

    Such a product's name is ABC and it's product id is 10. So the link for that product can be abc-10.html

    Using mod_rewrite grab product id (as 10) from the url and send it to your product detail page.

    My explanation could be some complex sorry :rolleyes:

    you can ask detail, if you need help ;)
