How to do that and alos be able to GET those variable values?
You just need to learn how to implement URL rewriting. I know PHP runs on Windows in IIS, but I'm going to go ahead and assume you are probably running Apache. Just read up on redirecting with .htaccess files and mod_rewrite. There's also something similar (that, alas, you have to pay for) called ISAPI Rewrite for windows servers which I've used plenty of times. And if you don't want to use a third party plugin and you have server 2008, the wizards for IIS do a pretty decent job and they just modify your web.config file directly to do the redirects.
you might want to try to research about URL encoding that's what i know if you like to change how your links display the url... hope my answer is enough :)
I see that your issue is already solved (for Linux). If anyone has the same problem with a Windows Server, you can use Ionics ISAPI Rewrite Filter
I've been using it for years now, and it works perfectly. Just wanted to post it here in case anybody needs it.
