append href path

[Guest]

tricky... i'm trying to do the following

 

My site has 699 unique manufacturers (or artists) created dynamically (using Ultimate SEO with html output). The biography pages (1-1 match for manufacturers pages) are static, and not dynamically created. I'm using the manfufacturer_info box to create a link to the biography page. I've managed to append the manufacturer info to the URL path (though not very gracefully).

 

I'm not able to append a /biography/ directory to the path, nor use the manufacturer names w/o spaces.

i.e. it can go to

http://arthousereproductions.com/712_artist_biography.php

but not (i get a '?' squeezed in)

http://arthousereproductions.com/biography...t_biography.php

 

 

 

What I've done so far.....

 

<br><a class="tiny" href="' . tep_href_link2( $manufacturer['manufacturers_id']) . '_artist_biography.php">' . Biography . '</a><br>

 

doing this along with altering html_output to switch the manufacturer ID with php extension...

 

function tep_href_link2($parameters = '', $page = '', $connection = 'NONSSL', $add_session_id = true, $search_engine_safe = true) {

global $seo_urls;

return $seo_urls->href_link($parameters, $page, $connection, $add_session_id);

 

}

---------------------------------------------------

 

Below is a page that more or less shows where I've gotten to this point - the biography link is under the "More art from...".

http://arthousereproductions.com/athomeapo...900-p-5789.html

 

So, how can I use the manufacturer's name with underscores? Also, how can I squeeze in a subdirectory in the path?

 

hope someone understands what i'm talking about...

thanks.
