Problem with backslashes and the SEO module

[gammascalper]

It seems that there's problem with the SEO URL module.

Take Jeff's thread: "Making money w/ Yandex". It leads to a 404 because the URL has become:

/forums/634-yandex-w/-extention-to-make-money.html

Note the backslash with I've emboldened.

The SEO module doesn't parse and reduce the backslash into something URL-safe. If you post the module code, I'm sure we can figure it out collectively.

I think I'll have to make a few suggestions on what can't be put in titles
My reason for putting the URLs like that is that most people don't know that the search engines use these characters in the search engine algorithm & it increases our search engine rankings for other languages tremendously.

Unfortunately I can't post the code it's encrypted but I'll have the programmers take a look.

Thanks Olney. Gah - encrypted.

Somebody interested in my .CN sales thread indicated that it bounces back to the homepage. No backslashes in this.
