Making dynamic links look static

[DFrag]

Hello all,

Hope this is in the correct section.

Is there a way to make the dynamic links in php pages look static so that Search Engines like Google recognize the page better?

I feel that the php page with variables is giving Google troubles when it comes to page ranking.

Thanks

Google will recognize php links just fine even with GET parameters. The reasons to do this are so that
- humans will recognize the link better
- you don't have to change the link just because you change server technologies. Ideally, your link should have no extension at all, not .php or .html

The php manual and the microsoft site employ this pretty well

www.php.net/mysql_fetch_assoc

takes you straight to the page on that function (or should)

and

www.microsoft.com/word

takes you straight to the page on that product.
