URL parameter looking like directory

I have seen websites with site IDs in the URL looking like a folder.

For example: www.example.com/detail.html/42. The page is always the same and gets its content-ID from the URL without the typical GET parameters (.../detail.html?id=42). How can i manage this with Javascript?

You can use javascript frameworks e.g. AngularJS or if you want only the routing you can use something like sammy.js or do it server-side

You can't. It's done server-side using URL rewriting.

There are different ways of doing this depending on your technology stack (server-side).

If you're building a Single Page App these use something called hashbangs, but they aren't formatted like that.
