As Erwin pointed out, this is something handled by mod_rewrite in
Apache (I don't know if there's an equivalent in IIS, and if so, what
it is).
To make /category/13 point open the URL /category.php?id=13, you'd put
something like the following in a .htaccess file in the web root
directory:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^\/category\/([0-9])+ /category.php?id=$1 [L]
