Default Joomla's Friendly URL?

I thought I can get a quick reply here because I cannot find this answer in Joomla itself.

I toggle my client's URL to make it SEO Friendly.

What I get is this:

http://www.clientdomainname.com/content/view/6/35/
http://www.clientdomainname.com/content/view/6/12/
http://www.clientdomainname.com/content/view/6/7/

The URLs are not showing the title nor the text. Obviously it's not 100% URL friendly.

I run through the entire Joomla functions but I cannot find anything else.

Is there a plug-in that I must use? Or did I miss out anything?

There are some free plugins you can try and you can try also adjusting the .htaccess file. I've found this paid plugin to be excellent:
SEF Advance - Joomla SEF URLs - Search Engine Friendly URL component for Joomla - Sakic.Net

Hello Joseph,

Buddy you need to check this box also, in Global configuration
Use Apache mod_rewrite

this will make it work in Joomla 1.5.x

Default Re: Joomla's Friendly URL?

Ah... I see the problem...

My client's version is 1.0.3.

So I have to upgrade the thingy to 1.5.x.

Is the upgrading as easy as wordpress?
