What you are looking for has nothing to do with PHP. It has to do with .htaccess files. Check out this link:

If I understand what you want, you want to create a single page; it would
be linked like this:

http://example.com/mypage.php?include=1
http://example.com/mypage.php?include=2

In the page you would have something like:

<?php
// Build the name of the requested file
$includeFile = $_GET["include"] & '.php';
// Get the requested file
include_once{$includeFile);
?>

So that the information in 1.php, 2.php, ... would be included in
mypage.php. If, say, 39.php didn't exist, this would throw an error, or
at least an empty page. Wrap the include statement in a check routine:

<?php
// Build the name of the requested file
$includeFile = $_GET["include"] & '.php';
if (file_exists($includeFile)) {
// Get the requested file
include_once($includeFile);
} else {
include_once('errorfile.php')
}
?>
