I have been told that apache has some features that can help me do this using either the config or .htaccess file.

I have used the .htaccess file to take a script and instead of having it named "main.cgi" it is now named just "main". So now that the .cgi extension is gone I want to get rid of the ? in the url for dynamically generated pages. That way it will be search engine friendly.

I have heard from people this is possible. Could someone please tell me how to do this?

Thanks

Yes, using mod_rewrite.

mod_rewrite is pretty difficult to use based on its flexibility and power. Please go to: http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/rewriteguide.html and look at "Filesystem Reorganisation" section, this matches best to your situation.

I haven't tried "Filesystem Reorganisation" myself, so I can't give you example. In that example, the cgi scipt has .cgi extension, you can simply remove the .cgi extension using ScriptAlias or whatever since you already figured out this part.
