 * I have geography pages for two types of business listings. Each page goes from
   state, county, city, but I need to have the same geography shared between two
   types of business.
 * My two business types are dentist and chiropractors.
 * I am trying to have a permalink structure like this:
 * xyz.com/dentist/alabama
    xyz.com/dentist/alabama/polk-county/ xyz.com/chiropractors/
   alabama/ xyz.com/chiropractors/alabama/polk-county/
 * I originally was going to load the geography as pages and subpages, but with 
   that method I cannot get the permalink separated by the type chiropractor and
   dentist.
 * So now I have created a custom post type one for chiropractor and one for dentist
   which give me the permalink xyz.com/dentist and xyz.com/chiropractor.
 * My question is now how to handle my category geography page. I was wondering 
   if in wordpress it is possible to create a shell page such as xyz.com/dentist/[
   state]/ and then through php dynamically build a page for each state? So where
   it shows [state] it will be replaced with the actual state such as alabama, california
   etc when that specific page is viewed. But the shell page is just 1 page in the
   database.
 * If so could someone give me a basic explanation on how to instruct a programmer
   to do this?
 * Thank you.
