    Without a script to pre-process like vbseo does, you basically have to do it manually.

    by manually, i mean instead of <a href="/about.php"> you need to code it as <a href="/about/>

    then, you need an .htaccess rule set to process the directive like

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteRule ^/(.+)/$ $1\.php [L]



    untested... but i think that will do it

    Convert all your image URLs

    1. to absolute URLs instead of relative. (easier)

    OR

    2. be referenced from site root rather than document root

    Sample :

    filename : file.php in _root_/dir1/
    image : image.gif in _root_/img/

    to insert image.gif in file.php, URLs can be :

    > your-domain.com/img/image.gif

    > ../img/image.gif
