Create directory or folder based URLs from detail.php

Hi!

I'm sure this must have been covered at some point in the forum, but I can't find anything, so here goes:

For a multi-record editor, is there a way of converting this kind of url:
exampleWebsite/newsDetail.php?How-to-prepare-your-office

to this kind:
exampleWebsite/How-to-prepare-your-office/

like you have in, say, Wordpress?

Thanks and Happy New Year!
