    Hey guys ...
    My appologies but I am not a programmer and had a brain fart about optimizing certain aspects of my site. I have this quick question:

    Can I use a mod rewrite or other tool to modify a dynamic URL:

    Url spits out like this: www.abc.com/inq.php?terms=cows

    Url I would prefer it spits out: www.abc.com/infoabout-cows.htm

    Is this possible? Please excuse my ignorance.
    thanks
    Frank
