@Fritz : URL rewrite is working good ... but the variables didn't give me the values i pass true the url ... it gives me 404.shtml for the variable echo.

Fritz

hmm..have you tried combination of value and name instead?
What configuration do you have from the tools?

maybe you can try this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /subfolder
RewriteRule ^var/([^/]*)\.html$ /index.php?var=$1 [L]
