Linking a file as a directory

Question

I feel so dumb for not know what to call this...but I am trying to accomplish what I have seen here: http://followerblast.org/terms/

Instead of terms.php, it is just "/terms/" I have tried googling EVERYTHING I can think of.

How would I accomplish this?

They are sometimes called SEO-friendly URLs and are realized with `mod_rewrite` — mensi, Mar 09 '13 at 09:48

There are multiple ways to achieve this

htaccess(mod_rewrite), http://zenverse.net/seo-friendly-urls-with-htaccess/
Folders, Come on it's not a good way to do this it's really dump
MVC & FWs , if you are familiar with Frameworks and MVC SW Pattern then it will do this for your check CodeIgniter it's my favorite and simple

Also check this out .htaccess short and friendly url I hope this can help :)

Thank you for this, but Im still slightly confused. what If I just want to take http://www.mysite.com/terms.php and have that turn into http://www.mysite.com/terms/ ? – user1508174 Mar 09 '13 at 10:06

I have, and that seems to be wanting to change it from /terms/ to /terms.php – user1508174 Mar 09 '13 at 10:09
