php preg_replace help

[djalam]

I'm currently working on a paging script i got from online, everything works good and all so i wanted to make it into a pretty link for example

Before
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=2

After(w/ pretty links)
http://www.mysite.com/page/2/

I have already corrected the .htaccess to work with the link so its good to go, only thing i need help in is taking the Before link and convert it pretty link format, i know it can be done using pregreplace but i'm still new to this so still confused as to how to do this (and yes i google'd), just need a

function blah($rawlink) {
//code to convert and return into pretty link.
}

Thanx in advance to any/and everyone

http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=2

Is this part always the same? Or can 'page' and 'index.php' vary?

yeah its always the same only thing that changes is the number '2' and 'page'
well...actually i think page might also change to something like
section=car (http://www.mysite.com/index.php?section=car -> http://www.mysite.com/section/car/)

function blah($rawlink) {

$pattern = '/\/index\.php\?page=(\d+)$/' ;

return preg_replace( $pattern , '/page/$1' , $rawlink );


}
