Answer 1

in your config.php put something like this:

array(
......
'components'=>array(
    ......
    'urlManager'=>array(
        'urlFormat'=>'path',
        'rules'=>array(
            '<oid:\w+>'=>'myBook/mobile',
            ),
        ),
    ),
);

It is in the manual too: http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/topics.url

Answer 2

Try this one:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /index.php?r=myBook/mobile&oid=$1 [R,L]

It will redirect /something to /index.php?r=myBook/mobile&oid=something
