Edit your .htaccess file to add this:

#forward all traffic to index to be handled there except resources
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !(\.png|\.jpg|\.gif|\.jpeg|\.bmp|\.js|\.css)$
RewriteRule (.*)  index.php [QSA]

Note that any other file types you don't want to be forwarded will need to be added to the list of file types above. What this line is doing is forwarding all file requests to your index.php file except the ones you declare (like images).

Next, go to your index.php file and add this code:

echo "My URL is:" . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

This is the basic answer. Now, any question you have beyond this is a matter of basic PHP (and probably MySQL). You can manipulate that data in a limitless combination of ways.
