I'm getting the following error: Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Unknown modifier ')' in /xxx/xxxxx/xxxx/xxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxx/url-test.php on line 10
Array ( [0] => )
Obviously I've x'd out the real info. But can you help with this error? Thank you!

@Hugo: Thanks for bringing that to my attention. turns out my blog script removed a necessary backspace character in the code. It should work now.
Also, you can see a live demo of this in action at the following URL.

Very neat! The MVC design pattern comes to mind when looking at how you accomplished this. At least the front-loader design portion of it since you have no views or models.

@Jordan: Actually, I have implemented this into my own PHP framework. I'll be releasing it some time soon so keep an eye out!

You're code disappeared! Kinda dissapointing since so many others found it useful.

The code is still on the article page:

Is there a way to do this while hiding the "index.php" ?
I have a folder called "blog" in my directory so that www.domain.com/blog accesses the index.php in the blog folder by default. However if I use the url www.domain.com/blog/18-jan it displays "page not found". www.domain.com/blog/index.php/18-jan works great though.

Matt, that would require some mod_rewrite. Like so:
RewriteEngine on RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|img|bin) RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
