Dynamic to static

Question

My site is an e-commerce site. All URLs are dynamic, like "my_domain/a.php", "my_domain/a.php?id=1", "my_domain/b.php", "my_domain/b.php?id=3", etc.

I want static URLs like "my_domain/a.html","my_domain/b.html","my_domain/c.html", "my_domain/d.html", etc.

I am little weak in the .htaccess file. What do I add to my .htaccess file o achieve that result?

I've been looking for an answer similar to this question for a while now.

For something like your example, you could do:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /testpage.php?id=$1 [L]

I found this website this morning which helps to generate these re-write rules

it's output was:

The original URL:
http://mywebsite.com/testpage.php?id=1
The rewritten URL:
http://mywebsite.com/1
