вопрос про apache

установи и настрой модуль Apache: mod_rewrite

от автора а по другому никак нельзя ????

Способ 2:
попробуй вставить в конфиги вот это:

###
### Customize behaviour based on the browser
###
<IfModule mod_setenvif.c>
    #
    # The following directives modify normal HTTP response behavior to
    # handle known problems with browser implementations.
    #
    BrowserMatch "Mozilla/2" nokeepalive
    BrowserMatch "MSIE 4\.0b2;" nokeepalive downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
    BrowserMatch "RealPlayer 4\.0" force-response-1.0
    BrowserMatch "Java/1\.0" force-response-1.0
    BrowserMatch "JDK/1\.0" force-response-1.0

    #
    # The following directive disables redirects on non-GET requests for
    # a directory that does not include the trailing slash.  This fixes a
    # problem with Microsoft WebFolders which does not appropriately handle
    # redirects for folders with DAV methods.
    #
    BrowserMatch "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider" redirect-c
arefully
    BrowserMatch "^WebDrive" redirect-carefully
    BrowserMatch "^gnome-vfs" redirect-carefully
    BrowserMatch "^WebDAVFS" redirect-carefully
</IfModule>
# End of browser customization directives



и еще хелп в догонку http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/env.html
читай в области redirect-carefully

Если это apache, то попробуйте использовать mod_dir:
This module provides for "trailing slash" redirects and serving directory index files.
