    <p>First of all, you would need to change the href in the html, to give the new url format</p> <pre><code>function news_preview() { $query = "SELECT * FROM news ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5 "; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "&lt;a href=\"/news/$row[id]\"&gt; ". substr($row['title'], 0,26)."...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;".; } } </code></pre> <p>The will generate urls like <code>http://localhost/news/24</code></p> <p>Note that I removed the <code>/DIRECTORY/AID</code> from the url, as the htaccess suggest you want that to be url, as opposed to what you stated in the text.</p> <p>But now the get to the <code>http://localhost/news/this_is_article_title</code> type of url. Because there is no correlation between <code>this_is_article_title</code> and the id <code>24</code>, the only way to achieve this is by either adding the id to the url too, or to have the php lookup the news-article with this title in the database. </p> <p>This last solution however has some problems, as the you can't just us the title in a url. You have to escape characters. Also you'll have to add a index for the title row in the DB for better performance. </p> <p>So I'll go with the first solution. We will generate urls like this </p> <p><code>http://localhost/news/24/this_is_article_title</code></p> <p>First the php part</p> <pre><code>function news_preview() { $query = "SELECT * FROM news ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5 "; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $url = "/news/$row[id]/".preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9-_]/', '_', $row['title']); echo "&lt;a href=\"$url\"&gt; ". substr($row['title'], 0,26)."...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;".; } } </code></pre> <p>Next comes the htaccess part.</p> <pre><code>RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l RewriteRule ^news/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9_-]+)$ DIRECTORY/AID/news.php?id=$1 [QSA,L] </code></pre> <p>That should do it I think.</p>

    1. CO+1 This approach makes much more sense to me (far better to have clean readable urls than query stringed numerics).. however I think the RegExp should be `A-Za-z0-9_-` rather than `A_Za_z0_9-_`.

    2. CO@pebbl nice catch. I must have really liked my shift key, when writing the code. Eritrea; please check the edited htaccess code above.

    3. COI forgot to put `RewriteRule` before the regex. How dumb is that?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
