It works pretty much as you described. :)

Make a script like that and run phpinfo() from it and you'll see all the
variations on $PHP_SELF and $HTTP_SERVER_VARS[] that allow you to
retrieve the extra parameters from the URL.

Note that if your page displays images, you'll need to include a <base
href="..."> tag to stop the browser from getting confused.

I use this all over the place and it works great.

There's also a variant with the Apache ForceType directive that allows
you to just do stuff like  www.mysite.com/myscript/foo/bar/123 where
'myscript' is really a php file.  It's well-discussed in the archives
and at phpbuilder.
