rewrite www.foobar.com?querystring into www.foobar/newdir/

Hi,
I have a this url...
http://www.foobar.com/detail.php?item_id=208&page_id=21
and I need it to be...
http://www.foobar.com/memorial/

Is mod rewrite the best thing for this?
This is the only rewrite required for the site so all other links need to stay intact as they are.

Please help, this rewrite stuff is tough!
Cheers

Try the following in a .htaccess file in your document root
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^memorial/?$ /detail.php?item_id=208&page_id=21 [QSA,L]
