    Hi,

    I have a problem with the mod_rewrite. I'm running a holiday rentals website, I need to fix my unfriendly SEO links before I officially launch the site.

    In the SEARCH RESULTS, right now for any particular DESTINATION it is like:

    http://domain.com/index.php?obj=search&ns=1&regional_ext1_id=1023

    where id=XYZ is the id for the DESTINATION.

    now I would like that to display something like:

    http://domain.com/destination

    (for example domain.com/germany)


    The same thing (similar) would be required for COUNTRIES and REGIONS.

    I'd really appreciate if someone would help me with this....thanks! :)
