Need a PHP programmer who knows some basic mod rewrite

    I have a site that has thousands of pages. However, all of the content is in a database, and they've used HTML files as placeholders for each page. I'd like to use mod rewrite to get rid of all these unnecessary HTML files.

    How do you think you would quote me? What information would you need?

    What do you mean by placeholders ?, Your content is generated dynamically or non-dynamically ?

    The content is dynamically generated, but here is the content of the HTML files:

    <?php $id=55122; include("../../template.php"); ?>

    Basically, they took the backwards route. Instead of using one template file and looking up the ID based on the URL, they created an HTML file at that URL and hard-coded the ID. I'd like to remove the thousands of HTML files so I can work with the site more easily.
