Thank you very much for your help FMB. I have copied and pasted your solution into a separate file so when I feel brave enough to install the SEO mod I will have it. I reallly appreciate your time and help very much.

The comments about the Paypal IPN have me quite concerned, though. I really hate to 'rock the boat' as it were since all payment mods on my site are working well and I am not sure if the trade-off of SEO friendly URL's would be worth possible lost orders due to paypal troubles.

Any suggestions, tips, or personal experience on this trade-off would be both welcomed and appreciated??

Thanks again for all your help. Have a beautiful evening.
