SEF - what should I see after it is installed?

[Johnfromhere]

Knowing virtually nothing about search engines, except how to use them, can someone please explain what I am supposed to see after installing the plugin 'Search Engine Friendly URLs (sef_urls): v1.8'.

I realise that there may be problems with it, as stated in the caveat but I can't say whether mine is working or not when I don't know what it is supposed to do  .

The .htaccess file appears to have installed OK and I have altered the RewriteBase parameter as suggested elsewhere.

If anyone can enlighten me (in words of one syllable!) as to what this plugin does, and what I should be seeing, I should be most grateful.

Many thanks.

John.

Using version 1.5.20 URL is www.jjsphotos.co.uk

It changes your urls to something like:
http://www.jjsphotos.co.uk/cpgallery/displayimage-7-25.html

instead of:
http://www.jjsphotos.co.uk/cpgallery/displayimage.php?album=7&pid=25

Many thanks, Jeff.

It is indeed working.

Thanks again.

John.
