I can't test in IR7.0, because I haven't yet been bold enough to try to the kludge/fix that allows IE6 and IE7 to be used separately on the same computer, so I can test in IE6.
BTW the search works fine as far as I can tell in Firefox, even with the mod enabled.
I do also have quite a few other problems of which I am aware, but these are mainly due to me trying to trim the code by removing unwanted stuff.

You referred to 'fixes' for the problems with the SEO mod - I don't suppose you could be so kind help an old fella by pointing me in the right direction?
All the fixes that you need are already in this thread. Unfortunately, because I have abandoned this mod for a superior SEO url mod, I am not as interested to dig through these 100+ pages to find the link. If you pick up about page 55 of this thread you should see all that you need. The Paypal Express fix is somewhere on page 105 and forward.

This mod is not production ready but if you're keen on it, everything that you need to at least make it worthwhile (with the exception of two issues that there are currently no fixes for) are all in this thread you just have to spend the time to dig through.

I realized I spent more time here than the $89 it cost me to get a superior SEO Url that works flawlessly. I had great hopes for this mod and I was part of the people that contributed to get this project then. Unfortunately, all we have to show for it is a Beta version that the creator (Dreamscape) said only a stupid store owner will use it in production. Those are his words not mine.

A 301 Redirect is simply a way for you to tell the Search Engine that the address has permanently changed and moved to this new location. It's like a forwarding address on file with the postal service only in this case it's robots.

I posted all the codes needed for different scenarios and what you need in your .htaccess on this thread as well.

Nothing I have said in this post is new, they are all part of this thread which is why I am not providing much because there is really not much new, this thing has been discussed over and over, you just need about 10 hours to read all the post. The big question is how much are you worth an hour?
