The simple way is to use a rewrite rule for Apache and parse it with PHP.

You have to enable mod_rewrite for your XAMPP installation.

Create .htaccess in the root of your localhost with the following content:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?uq=$1 [L,QSA]

Now, in the index.php as the last rewrite rule refers to, you should be able to do something like:

<?php
  $url_parts = explode('/', $_GET['uq']);
  var_dump($url_parts);
?>

The array dumped by PHP sould give you an idea.
