	We are actually about to get into this. There are about four tasks in line in front of it, but we already have a few people who are working on a proposed naming scheme now. I'll keep you posted as we move thorugh.

	After a bit of research we decided not to do it. Google etal does not have a problem spidering the site and indexing the pages. The work involved in getting and maintaining rules that would produce urls root/productcart/pc/category-productname-id# or even root/category-productname-id# was more work than the SEO advantage provided in our option. Your milage may vary. Still on the list but way down there.

	What about this idea for the future...the ability to purchase a module from early impact that would include ISAPI re-write and a tool you can use through the back end administration of the cart to manage the pages. Maybe even have product cart manage it's own pages, and then allow you to add additional rules if need be. That way you wouldn't have to worry about what pages changed because PC would take care of that for you. I know we would buy it.

	ISAPI rewrite is done server-side, so it's typically something that the average ProductCart users, whose store is hosted in a shared hosting environment, would not be able to use. That's why so far we haven't provided such a solution. However, we are considering a number of options. One idea is to leverage the URL rewriting capabilities that are built into .NET. We are investigating whether this could be used for an ASP site too, as long as the .NET framework is installed on the server. More on this later this year.

	Just wanted to post a conversation I had with helicontech...which makes the isapirewrite... we went back and forth trying to get the rewrite to work. It did but I wanted to go the mapping route to save on resources. This was a while back btw.... http://www.helicontech.com/forum/forum_posts-TID-1158-KW-whi zzinisapi.asp
