how to change it to

localhost/ab/jenny

is possible?

You'll want to use mod_rewrite, a module available in apache. This will be managed by an .htaccess file within your web directory. AddedBytes has a nice tutorial for beginners on url-rewriting.

See: http://www.addedbytes.com/for-beginners/url-rewriting-for-beginners/

You can do this in at least 2 different ways:

• Use mod_rewrite for Apache to map the SEO friendly URL to your querystring based URL.
• Make /ab a php script that inspects the PATH_INFO to retrieve /jenny. You'll have to configure Apache to treat scripts with no extension as php scripts for this to work.
