the web-server
if you access www.php.net/asdfadasdasd (and the directory DOES exist) the
web-server returns:
301 Moved Permanently
http://www.php.net/asdfadasdasd/
then the Web-Server gets the request "http://www.php.net/asdfadasdasd/" from
the Browser
Now the server looks in its configuration (for example Apache:
DirectoryIndex index.php)

I don't even want to try it ;-)

the server looks in its configuration (for example Apache: DirectoryIndex
index.php) and returns this page - with the GET-Varaibales as well (your
Browser doesn't have to know, what this page's name is!)
But I'm sure you can configure your webserver (or put it in your script) to
make a 301/2/3 and redirect to the full URL!
