Let me promote TemplateRunner a little more:

myapp.cgi/bbs/1234.html

can also become

bbs/_default.html

where the "1234" is made available to both the template and the 
associated data file.

This system helps you to get rid of a lot of CGI parameters, and you can 
use shorter, simpler, relative URLs, for example href='?page=2' would 
work basically everywhere you need paging without any extra params to 
specify what list is being paged here.

Well, minor URL tampering results in 404 errors on most web sites anyway ...
