Big thanks to Olaf, Agerhart, Littleman, Brett and every webmaster, newbie and oldie, you are one of the reasons the Internet is sooo great and this site sooo cool! :)
I want to share this, so I can get some feedback on what I'm doing.
After lots of reading and writing I think I might have found a solution that might be of interest to others.
I wrote a PHP script that works when an error 404 is found when a user requests, say, www.domain.com/somename.
The script checks for the existance of "somename" (in my database) and if it does, the browser is redirected to www.domain.com/artist/x/somename.html
Then a RewriteRule "feeds" the value of "x" to a script in artist to retrieve the info.
Now, I have to generate an html file that will contain links like so:
<a href="/artist/x/name.html">name</a>
<a href="/artist/x+1/othername.html">other name</a>
etc...
so, when a spider comes along, it can follow every artist in my site with this single html file.
How about that?!
Any remarks, observations, tips, etc.?
Thanks!
