I have commited to SVN trunk a new version of PrettyURLs which allows you to choose whether using
* automatic mode (same as now, if .htaccess exists uses PRETTY otherwise PATHINFO)
* HTTP URL mode: http://example.com/flatpress/?u=/my/url (useful for instance with IIS)
* PATHINFO mode: http://example.com/flatpress/index.php/my/url
* PRETTY http://example.com/flatpress/my/url
please test and report any problem :)
*PRETTY is great. URL's should be short, easy to understand, have an non confusing structure and possible to tell to someone over a bad phone line without using the phonetic alphabet :P
Besides, with the PRETTY version it's possible to do a lot of fun tricks like mixing static pages with blog categories within the same look and feel of the URL's as well as using a directory labeled the same and a special crafted .htaccess to include customized features. Love it :)
