How to show configurable product with preselected options if requested url is for simple product?

For example:

Simple product #1 has:
Color: Red
URL: /simple-red.html

Simple product #2 has:
Color: Green
URL: /simple-green.html

Configurable product has:
URL: /config.html

If user visits /simple-red.html it should be loaded configurable product with pre-selected option Color: Red

Successfully solved the problem:

  1. Extended ProductController, to replace product id of simple product by product id of parent configurable product. Used SO Answer:
    Magento Catalog ProductController rewrite

    Code in custom ProductController:

    ...
$productId  = (int) $this->getRequest()->getParam('id');

// Get parent configurable product
$_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($productId);
if ($_product->getTypeId() == "simple") {
    $parentIds = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_configurable')->getParentIdsByChild($_product->getId());

    // If parent exists
    if (isset($parentIds[0])) {
        $productId = $parentIds[0];
    }
}
...

  2. PreSelect configurable product options depending on simple product. Used link to tutorial given by Vishal Sharma
