I thought I answered this already!

You set up your htaccess so that everything goes to a php page.

In the php page, you look at the server request variable and use that to 
calculate which content to deliver.

The url shown in the browser address bar will be the url that it 
requested. If you wish to change this, you need to use a redirect to the 
url that wish to have displayed. You can do this in the same php page.

In apache, at the host level, use:

AliasMatch ^/.* /index.php

Then every request will get passed to /index.php.

In /index.php, you can look at any request data (post or get) as well as 
the request uri, and then decide to do one of the following:

(a) Display content relevant to the request uri; or
(b) Issue a redirect header from the php to change the request uri; or
(c) Display default content

So then a request for http:/blah.blah.blah/blah?id=15 can trigger a 
redirect to http:/blah.blah.blah/documents (because your php knows that 
id 15 is documents), and http:/blah.blah.blah/documents gets processed 
according to the request uri and the documents content is delivered to 
the visitors browser.

Note that whether you do the redirections and processing in apache or php, 
there is a need to first of all create and then manage mappings of (a) id 
to content name and (b) content name to content source.
