Is there an equivalent to ASP.NET routing in PHP. I am working on an online math dictionary in PHP and can't find any equivalent to ASP.NET routing for PHP. I want to be able to go to example.com/dictionary/word and have the word come up in a dynamically generated page from a database. I have been trying to figure out how to make a file similar to the global.asax file in php but can't find what I want. Any help would be great

Take a look at Aura.Router:
https://github.com/auraphp/Aura.Router
It allows you to do URL routing in PHP.
This will require minimal URL rewriting setup.

This isn't something you can do in PHP, but rather you are going to need to use the Apache ModRewrite module in a .htaccess file to configure your custom routing.
Here is a good tutorial on how you can configure this:
