It's easy to use mod_rewrite & htaccess to change URLs to something like this:

http://www.domain.com/link-XXX.html

However I'm having trouble changing local_links.php to use the later format.

For SEO purpose, I prefer to use standard links as it has a much better chance to get indexed by Google.

I've not used mod_rewrite, so I'm not too sure what you want.

Are you asking for the hack to display category jump urls of the form link-NNN.htm, which your site's Apache will catch and turn back into local_links.php?catid=XXX

If this is what you want, you can achieve this by editing the links_catbit template

Otherwise, I don't understand.
