This question already has an answer here:
I would like to know how to make a PhP url without the GET (?function=) part.
Such as:
main/function/42456457654
main being the main page, function being the page with the URL, and 42456457654 being a part selected from a database.
I know you could do this by doing main/function/?function=42456457654, but I'd like to make it so that it still communicates with the server to get values in a database at request.

You need to put in rewrite rules in your web server's configuration.
Apache:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html
Nginx
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html
But basically it will rewrite the url from:
main/function/42456457654
to something like
main.php?action=function&id=42456457654
Or something like that
Hope that helps
