I am working with a site with URLs that look like this: http://domain.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=24&Itemid=53&lang=en I have seen plenty of tutorials on using mod_rewrite and .htaccess to rewrite these so that they look something like: http://domain.com/com_content/category/24/53/en But how can I rewrite them so that they look like: http://domain.com/article-about-something If you have any idea, please help me out. Any and all responses are much appreciated. Thanks!

This is just the basic of rewriting URL, you can get more details by searching in google.
