remove index.php from url but keeping the GET variables

[ibagur]

Hi, I got this basic question.

I want this behaviour on a site I'm working

www.mysite.com/index.php?action=something

to be:

www.mysite.com/?action=something

how do I achive this?

Thanks

just write it like that, exactly as you have done above, and it should go to the correct place (assuming that index.php is set up as your default directory page)

i have loads of those on my site and they all work okay.

You could also install the index to "/" 301 redirect code that gets posted here every few days.

That would ensure that the longer "index" URL wouldn't ever be listed in the SERPs.
