Adding Keywords to URLs

[jeff@mistralsoap.com]

Hi,
We have version 4.22. I want to change our urls from something like this: http://www.mistralsoap.com/page/M/PROD/MS7/MS7LV to something like this http://mistralsoap.com/french-milled-lavender-soap. I want to be able to keep our products codes, however. Is there a way to do this?

how would hxxp://www.mistralsoap.com/page/M/PROD/MS7/MS7LV/french-milled-lavender-soap.html work for you?

This may sound stupid but how would you do this without changing the product code to MS7LV/french-milled-lavender-soap.html? This code is too long to fit on our invoice. Our web person said it isn't possible.

Because by using an .htaccess rewrite file, you essentially through out the "/french-milled-lavender-soap.html "

exactly. Currently I re-write my URLs as
domain.com/keyword-phrase/PRODCODE
and
domain.com/keyword-phrase/keyword/PRODCODE

You can add as much fluff as you want, but the real key is to just get the URLs away from looking dynamic to search engines.
