Hi

I have SEF404 added to the site, for some reason if you use the Joomla search for an artist, some artists are coming back in the search results with having .html at the end of the album name i.e. /downloads/l/185-john-smith/375-love-you.html whereas other albums have the link set as /downloads/l/185-john-smith/375-love-you-part-2 the ones without .html are working fine, its the one with .html that show a 404 error. For some reason they are appearing with the .html at the end of the name. The xmap plugin you made also adds these with the .html extention. I could via SEF404 do a 301 redirect to the correct page (without .html) but theirs over a 1000 with this issue.

If i go via music collection directly this issue does not persist. So not sure whats causing it in the search for only some of the albums.

    actually the .html is not added by our extension.. it must be added by Joomla's router..
    what are the global setting on SEF?
    is it possible that the urls containing .html are "older"? what if you just remove them, clean cache and this way they'll be re-build?
