Hi gagan welcome.
First of all, you are looking for something called "mod rewrite".
You could make maybe better urls, like:
example.com/review/14/title-of-the-review
That would represents this -->> (example.com/review.php?cid=14)
Why?
Because changing review.php to review.html, KEEPING the same dynamic URL makes no sense.
Create a file named .htaccess and write this code inside it:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule reviews/([^/]+)/([^.]+) review.php?cid=$1&title=$2 [L] |
|
Upload .htaccess to your root directory (with index.php).
After that you must change your PHP code to change the way it shows URLs.
If it actually does
so you must change to
I'm assuming your review has a title.
PS: Remember to check if your system acceppts mod rewrite.

This is exactly the right time for you to "go extensionless".
I'd use a URL like example.com/r14-the-page-name
Using a folder level for the id number is NOT appropriate.
These two recent threads may also be useful:
[webmasterworld.com...]
[webmasterworld.com...]

If the ID number is not going to appear in the new URLs, then you need to internally rewrite to a PHP script that then issues the redirect. This script will need to look in the database to see what the new URL will be.
Your current htaccess file has a large number of errors and inefficiencies. Luckiliy these are the same ones that are mentioned or discussed several times each week here.
Use http://www.example.com and http://example.com in this forum to prevent URL auto-linking.
